@remy sorry for the delay - I’ve just set up a simple package with nothing but nodemon and the basic “hello world” app.js file. I’m using nodemon as a dev dependency, and my yarn start is set to nodemon app.js. When I start it, I get the usual message:

 ⨯ Lemuel Cushing@CUTHBERT  C\..\nodemon_test  yarn start
yarn run v1.13.0
$ nodemon app.js
[nodemon] 1.18.10
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] watching: *.*
[nodemon] starting `node app.js`
Server running at http://127.0.0.1:3000/

When I make a change to app.js and save it, I get [nodemon] restarting due to changes... Which just hangs.

If I add the -V flag, the follwing is displayed:

 Lemuel Cushing@CUTHBERT  C\..\nodemon_test  yarn start
yarn run v1.13.0
$ nodemon -V app.js
[nodemon] 1.18.10
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] or send SIGHUP to 34116 to restart

[nodemon] forking
[nodemon] child pid: 10640
[nodemon] watching 3 files
Server running at http://127.0.0.1:3000/

And after I save a change:

[nodemon] matched rule: **\*.*
[nodemon] changes after filters (before/after): 1/1
[nodemon] restarting due to changes...
[nodemon] app.js

Care to debug rather than “me too”? Happy to take PRs that will fix or even some actual debugging information to replicate and fix…

Start Windows PowerShell with the “Run as Administrator” option. Only members of the Administrators group on the computer can change the execution policy.
Enable running unsigned scripts by entering:

set-executionpolicy remotesigned

You should run PowerShell as administrator then: PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned and press A

I had the same problem on win 7. The issue was founded accidentally. My solution was adding C:\Windows\System32\ to the system variable in the PATH.

I got this glitch after installing the latest update of nodemon. So I tried to revert back to the old version and it doesn’t do anything. I think the update does something on the windows operating system that cannot remove even after uninstall and installing (reinstall) the nodemon package. I believe the problem can be solve by reinstalling the os as stated on the previous Issue, https://github.com/remy/nodemon/issues/1461#issuecomment-442487389 but this isn’t an efficient fix.
