That's also true of Ruby, Python, Perl, ... Ultimately, if you're on Windows and you want a smooth development experience, you need to use made-for-Windows technologies (notably C# and friends). Hopefully that changes one day.

Not the OP. But personally, I have had much better experience with Perl and Python on Windows compared to NodeJS or Ruby.

I'd still always take NodeJS over Ruby when I'm stuck on Windows though. Ruby on Windows is a dumpster fire...
