As the tittle suggests the # npm install --production command fails to execute.

The console error information is:
> @drupal/sailor@ preinstall c:\xampp\htdocs\calypso\themes\sailor
> ./bin/download

'.' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Not 100% sure that this is not a problem in my end.

Hello David,

Considering I had no news in almost 2 weeks, should I proceed without the usage of the module?

Should the module be labeled as non functional, if this is not a machine problem?

Thanks in advance

I never tested the the download script on Windows / Powershell. You'd have to use it in Windows Subsystem for Linux.
