This is my first look into using Cordova with Visual Studio, I followed the Apache Cordova installation process and started to go through the first app example. When I run the Ripple - Nexus function I get the following output/errro:
1>------ Build started: Project: WeatherApp, Configuration: Debug Android ------

I have uninstalled the Cordova tools and reinstalled them, I uninstalled Android Studio (did not reinstall but reinstalled the Android SDK) and I've tried to reinstall the vs-tac via the command line. Please help as I would very much like to work with these tools.
Thanks, Alex
*Edit: I've added System32 to the path and reinstalled NodeJs and npm but now I get the following error:

I've run npm install -g in the command line, I have node version V5.12.0 and npm version 5.2.0.
