[BUG] Installation on Windows

See original GitHub issue

I am encountering a bug in the installation process in Windows. When trying to python manage.py tailwind install it says

CommandError: 
It looks like node.js and/or npm is not installed or cannot be found.

Visit https://nodejs.org to download and install node.js for your system.

If you have npm installed and still getting this error message, set NPM_BIN_PATH variable in settings.py to match path of NPM executable in your system.

Example:
NPM_BIN_PATH = "/usr/local/bin/npm"

Even though npm is installed and can be accessed via npm in the same shell.

I tried:

Restarting
Switching to macOS (works)
Adding NPM_BIN_PATH with \ , / and \ as dividers and %20 as space sign
Switching consoles from PowerShell and CMD
