The problem is with npmjs repository: it does not include consistent dependency.

If you look at https://www.npmjs.com/package/@socketsupply/socket?activeTab=code -> package.json file, there will be this section:

  "optionalDependencies": {
    "@socketsupply/socket-darwin-arm64": "0.6.0-rc.8",
    "@socketsupply/socket-darwin-x64": "0.6.0-rc.8",
    "@socketsupply/socket-linux-arm64": "0.6.0-rc.8",
    "@socketsupply/socket-linux-x64": "0.6.0-rc.8",
    "@socketsupply/socket-win32-x64": "0.6.0-rc.8"
  }

NPM repository has this package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@socketsupply/socket-win32-x64 - but it has older version 0.6.0-rc.5 - so mismatch in dependencies causes an error ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND because NPM searches for rc.8 version of package.

You can resolve this manually by installing older package yourself, globally:

npm i -g @socketsupply/socket-win32-x64

@heapwolf @jwerle NPM repo probably needs an update on that rc version for win32. Right now I've stumbled upon same problem during install, and installing from git can be unintuitive for those devs who stick to npmjs.
