Are you able to provide the detailed steps and environment which could reproduce your issue?

By checking the line of source code which throw this error as shown below, it seems obvious that it is due to MISSING HOME path and HOME drive environment variable.

exports.homeFolder = function () {
  if (process.env.HOME !== undefined) {
    return process.env.HOME;
  }

  if (process.env.HOMEDRIVE && process.env.HOMEPATH) {
     return process.env.HOMEDRIVE + process.env.HOMEPATH;
  }

  throw new Error('No HOME path available');
};

You should be able to solve this by setting the two new missing environment variables as below: HOMEDRIVE=C:

HOMEPATH=\Users\yourusername
