Help with Windows builds #22535

Description

@guybedford

I previously had Node.js builds working on both Ubuntu subsystem for Windows and through vcbuild.bat, but somehow over the last few months both of these builds have stopped working for me.

With vcbuild.bat it firstly doesn't find my Python install (C:\Python27, which is in PATH). I manually modified find_python.cmd to make sure it would find it, but then I get the following error:

                 'v8_typed_array_max_size_in_heap': 0,
                 'v8_use_snapshot': 'true',
                 'want_separate_host_toolset': 0}}
creating config.gypi
creating config.status
creating config.mk
Warning: Missing input files:
deps\v8\gypfiles\..\src\parsing\preparse-data-format.h

Which I'm kind of clueless as to how to debug.

I've removed Node and re-cloned, reinstalled Visual Studio etc.

Is anyone else having issues building on Windows at all, or is this just me!?

Regardless, help would be appreciated. I'm fine with sticking with Mac workflows, but it would help to test certain things on Windows.

Look forward to being told I've missed something painfully obvious :)
