I want to install <code>v0.8.6</code> of node along with <code>v0.10</code>. <ol> <li>How can I install NVM on windows </li> <li>And use it to install older node</li> </ol>

<code>nvm</code> is suited for linux environments. It requires <code>HOME</code> variable to be set where it will put the different node versions. For windows there is <code>nvmw</code>. Similarly an alternative to <code>nvm</code> is <code>n</code>. For which the windows version is <code>nodist</code>. See this useful blog.

I've just released a project called NVM for Windows. It comes with an installer and super-easy commands. <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/UGWlH.jpg" alt="enter image description here">
