Troubles with NPM and node-gyp in Windows

I have some troubles with npm packages on my Windows workstation... I have a set of NPM dependencies in my package.json file:

"devDependencies": {
    "babel-plugin-transform-react-jsx": "^6.2.0",
    "babel-preset-es2015": "^6.1.18",
    "babel-preset-react": "^6.1.18",
    "grunt": "^0.4.5",
    "grunt-babel": "^6.0.0",
    "grunt-contrib-connect": "^0.11.2",
    "grunt-contrib-jasmine": "^0.9.2",
    "grunt-contrib-sass": "^0.9.2",
    "grunt-contrib-watch": "^0.6.1",
    "grunt-exec": "^0.4.6",
    "grunt-template-jasmine-requirejs": "^0.2.3",
    "karma-chrome-launcher": "^0.2.2",
    "karma-firefox-launcher": "^0.1.7",
    "karma-requirejs": "^0.2.2",
    "requirejs": "^2.1.22",
    "grunt-contrib-jshint": "^0.11.3",
    "grunt-karma": "^0.12.1",
    "karma": "^0.13.15",
    "karma-jasmine": "^0.3.6",
    "karma-phantomjs-launcher": "^0.2.1"
  }

And when I trying to run npm install I get the strange error related to node-gyp package and something like \msbuild.exe.

Here is the error:

c:\Users\dmytro.medvid\sites\evolution\node_modules\utf-8-validate>if not defined npm_config_node_gyp (node "c:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node-gyp

Can someone help to figure out with it issue? I'm not experienced windows user, but at the moment I should work with Windows :(

UPDATED: Here is the errors log which I update every time with new NPM errors.

System details: Windows 7 Enterprice 64-bit operating system

Node version: v5.1.0

NPM version: v3.3.12

Python Version: v2.7.1

Also I installed Microsoft Visual C++ build tools (provided in answer below). Version 14.0

Why npm is not working on Windows?

The main cause of the npm command not found error is that npm is not installed. You can run the command “npm -v” to check whether npm is installed. If not, I recommend you uninstall Node. js and then reinstall node.

Why is npm install not working on CMD?

The Npm command not found error can appear when you install or upgrade npm. On Windows, the cause of this error could be that a PATH or system variable is not correctly set. The error can also occur if you do not have npm or Node. js installed, have an outdated version, or have permission issues.

What is node-gyp in npm?

node-gyp is a cross-platform command-line tool written in Node. js for compiling native addon modules for Node. js. It contains a vendored copy of the gyp-next project that was previously used by the Chromium team, extended to support the development of Node.

Why is NodeJs slow on Windows?

Node. js programs can be slow due to CPU or IO bound operations. On the CPU side, typically there is a “hot path” (a code that is visited often) that is not optimized. On the IO side, limits imposed by either the underlying OS or Node itself may be at fault.

Write those code in admin command prompt:

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

And then hit enter.
