I have an electron project in which drivelist is used as a dependency. When I run "npm install", I get an error stating node-gyp\bin folder wasn't found. Whereas, I have node-gyp\bin in my node modules, and even in c:\programfiles\nodejs ...." as opposed to what this error states. I guess drivelist couldn't build from source code after installation. But, what is the walk arround ? I am stuck because of this.

I don't know the cause of this error, since to me everything seems alright on my device, I went through every link I could find till now on the internet seeking for solution but I haven't found any solution yet. Please can anyone help ?
