Error running yo with Node.js 7.1 on windows 10 (Error: write EINVAL) #485
Description
After updating Node to latest version ( 7.1.0 ) on my windows 10 box, I globally installed yeoman. After that, I get an error running the yo command:
Error message states:

Mhmm. No Problems with Node 7.1.0 on Mac OS.

I'm having the same problems.

Got similar report on SBoudrias/Inquirer.js#447
Looks like Windows and Node 7 don't play well with one of our dependency.

Curiously enough I have no problems with Windows 10 and Node 7.1.0 running in a VM:
So it would be awesome if @longjoel @jochenvanwylick or @Lichtjaeger could deep a little deeper to check if its only rx-lite which make problems. If so you could file a bug in the RxJS Repo.

Sorry, but that is not the same Windows Version I run. I have the latest Windows (10.0.14393 Build 14393 | Anniversary 2016).
These are my error states:
If I run
yoin my cmd (or PowerShell too) it displays only black:After resize I get these error:
If I run
yo <generator_name>a get the following error:mischah commentedon Nov 10, 2016
Interestingly other users have similar errors with the combination of Windows 10 and Node 7.1.0 in with different packages:
I filed an issue in the Node.js repo: nodejs/node#9542
mischah commentedon Nov 10, 2016
Regarding nodejs/node#9542 it looks like errors are caused by a Node.js regression.
Current workaround: Get back to Node
7.0.0or better use the current LTS version6.9.xdiegocapadi commentedon Nov 19, 2016
mischah, you are right!

Closing this since Node 7.2 fixes this issue:

Yep - confirmed - thanks!

I am getting error on windows 10, with node 7.2 latest
Lichtjaeger commentedon Dec 2, 2016
@HelloPb I've made the experience that npm renames a file named ".gitignore" to ".npmignore".
You can confirm this by looking in the "C:\Users\Prasanna\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\generator-fwsp-hydra\app\templates" directory.
It's a problem with the "generator-fwsp-hydra" module. Not with yo.

Hi @HelloPb, just had this thread called to my attention. We fixed this issue a few days after your post, so if you haven't already, updating to the latest version of generator-fwsp-hydra will fix it.
Thanks!
