A very annoying compilation problem is happening to my computer regarding JScript and node, I already tried several instructions provided by the internet however the problem seems to persist.

CD>PROJECT
`npm init` ok
`npm install -g` and locally ok
`npm start` > problem with start: script > `app.js` or `node app.js` ok

If it runs I receive the Windows host server error #800A03EA syntax/compilation issue.

However, if I run the code
`npx http-server`, I can do my PWA projects with no issue.

I have already tried several 'fix' tools, repair, registry verification, but none of them seems to solve the situation.

[1]:

JScript (interpreted by windows script host, WSH) is not the same as JavaScript (interpreted by node*).

The error mentioned sounds as if the _JScript_ interpreter of the Windows Script Host was trying to execute a _JavaScript_ file intended for node.

Make sure you run your code with node (`node app.js`) and not with WSH. The default file association in windows for *.JS is WSH so doubleclicking or just running `app.js` will run WSH.

Also make sure your `start` command in `package.json` is actually set to `node app.js`, I get the feeling it is set to just `app.js`.

```
...
"scripts": {
"start": "node app.js"
}
...
```
Then, `npm start` should work.

_*: Of course node is not the only interpreter for Javascript, but it's the one relevant here._
