Additional context

It's a bit sad.

[fungiboletus]

It's similar to #487 (which is closed but not fixed) with a different error.

[terebentina]

@fungiboletus I don't think it's similar to that other issue. For the issue you're having see my PR here: #585 . It's a really quick fix.

Do we have any update on this issue? I have problems with version 2.6.1 of node-rdkafka on Windows 10 too.

[kowalej-925]

Same issue over here. I also get a bunch of compilation errors with the new 2.7.0 version. 2.5.1 worked fine.

2.7.1 installs fine on Windows. Please reopen if you're still having issues.
