I have been informed that this will put a node_modules folder in your user profile location, to put these modules on a thumb / other folder do the following:
Set the thumb drive letter to something that will NOT change between systems like P otherwise stuff breaks
extract the zip files to that drive in the location you want node.js like before im going to assume P:\node-v22.0.0-win-x64\
edit the 4th line of nodevars.bat from set "PATH=%APPDATA%\npm;%~dp0;%PATH%" to set "PATH=%~dp0;%PATH%"
then open a new command prompt and type cd /d P:\node-v22.0.0-win-x64\
then npm install npm@latest that should throw everything into P:\node-v22.0.0-win-x64\ i have zero clue what the repercussions of doing this are but stuff seems to work.
when you open a command prompt and type P:\node-v22.0.0-win-x64\nodevars.bat it should add P:\node-v22.0.0-win-x64\ to your systems %PATH% for that command prompt session.
