Node/Npm hooks still fails in Windows

describe your issue

On Windows I am still experiencing an issue similar to #2351 . I tried https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71939099/bitbucket-pipeline-error-installing-pre-commit-ts-lint but setting any version still fails with the same error.

I was running this from: cmd as well as Git Bash, in a conda environment

I also tried using the system node (with node 16.3.0 and 18.2.0) too but then it complains about:

Thanks. I solved it.

conda writes the AutoRun thing in the registry. See: https://localcoder.org/node-js-npm-error-message-system-cannot-find-the-path-specified and this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6637922/the-system-cannot-find-the-path-specified-when-starting-ruby-and-rails-command-p

Wow, you save my day. Actually AutoRun just broke my vscode-remote-ssh few days ago, and it broke my pyright pre-commit today. I don’t know conda will change it! Thanks!!!
