@cocodrino for your case, it seems like the zip file downloaded for qt was corrupt so 7zip failed to extract it.

Can you do

rm -rf /Users/Admin/Library/Caches/nodegui*
and rm -rf node_modules

then do npm install

@haroldb2 the error mentions that cmake cant find your visual studio 2019 instance.

I also have this same error on windows. I am stuck and don't know what to do.
I would have loved to test and work on it.
