On Windows XP/Vista/7, node-gyp requires Python 2.7 and Visual Studio 2010

According to the readme file in Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Service Pack 1 Compiler Update for the Windows SDK 7.1, to ensure that your system has a supported configuration, uninstall the following products and then reinstall them in the order listed:

  1. Visual C++ 2010 Express or Visual Studio 2010
  2. Windows SDK 7.1 Note: If you get error on installation, maybe this link will help you.
  3. Visual Studio 2010 SP1
  4. Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Compiler Update for the Windows SDK 7.1

On x64 environments, the last update in the list fixes errors about missing compilers and error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props" was not found.

If you experience the error LNK1181 file kernel32.lib not found, try compiling using the Windows SDK 7.1 Command Prompt start menu shortcut.
