It has been 4 hours now.

I've been having the same issue for about a week now.

Same, after running npm install --global --production windows-build-tools --vs2017

Yep, its still fucked.

As a workaround, I was able to get gyp to install (on Windows) by uninstalling nvm (nvm-windows) - which I had been using to switch between versions - and installing node 16.6 via the official NodeJS installer. During the installation process there in an option to install extra tooling (including gyp). That process went off without a hitch. 🤷‍♂️
