I used npm install web3 which would install (as of now) v1.0.0-beta.41
But it gave me the following error:

. Then I added a reg key in regedit("Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSBuild\4.0") as "VCTargetsPath" : "$(MSBuildExtensionsPath32)\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140" But it is still not working i.e., it gives the same error as mentioned.
I can install [email protected], but i want latest version as some of the functions from 0.20.7 has been removed/rearranged in v1.0.0 All I need is that nodejs should not complain when i do require('web3').
I want to know that how to install web3 package with dependencies. Also how to tell E:\node_modules\scrypt\build\scrypt_wrapper.vcxproj (there is no scrypt folder inside node_modules when i checked) to use V140 or any installed platformSetTools.
I have following folders in C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0
- V120
- V140
Also is it possible to merge web3 (with dependencies) installed on someone else's system into mine?
Update: I have following software installed in current pc:
Visual studio 2015
Microsoft .NET Framework (4.5 Multi targeting pack(MTP), 4.5 sdk, 4.5.1 MTP, 4.5.1 MTP (ENU), 4.5.1 SDK, 4.5.2 SDK, 4.5.2 MTP, 4.5.2 MTP ENU, 4.6 SDK, 4.6 Targeting Pack, 4.6 TP ENU, 4.6.1 SDK, 4.6.1 TP, 4.6.1 TP ENU, 4.7 SDK, 4.7 TP, 4.7 TP ENU)
Microsoft Visual C++ (2008,2012,2013,2017)
Also I can npm install web3 in a windows 7 (which also has visual studio 2015) and it executes/installs with no errors. This is output after attempting to install windows-build-tools and web3 packages.
