Recommended action: Install/modify VS or Build Tools adding 'Desktop development with C++' (on WoA add 'Visual C++ compilers and libraries for ARM64' and ATL for ARM64); optionally `Install-Module VSSetup -Scope CurrentUser`; unset stale msvs_version; also check whether a newer package version ships prebuilds so no compile is needed.
Option: Add the C++ workload [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: See record scope.
Steps:
1. Visual Studio Installer → Modify → 'Desktop development with C++' (MSVC toolset + Windows SDK)
2. Or: choco install visualstudio2026-workload-vctools -y
3. Reopen the shell and rerun npm install
Expected: Command proceeds without the error.
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
