Cannot find runtime 'node' on PATH - Visual Studio Code and Node.js

first run below commands as super user sudo code . --user-data-dir='.' it will open the visual code studio import the folder of your project and set the launch.json as below

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "type": "node",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Launch Program",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/app/release/web.js",
            "outFiles": [
                "${workspaceFolder}/**/*.js"
            ],
            "runtimeExecutable": "/root/.nvm/versions/node/v8.9.4/bin/node"
        }
    ]
}

path of runtimeExecutable will be output of "which node" command.

Run the server in debug mode cheers

On OSX and VSCode 1.56.2 all I had to do was to close and restart VSCode and the problem went away.

To follow up, I just ran into this as well. When I installed Node.js there was an option that said Add to PATH (Available After Restart). Seems like Windows just needs a restart to make things work.
