WKND tutorial: CreateProcess error=193, %1 is not a valid Win32 application

I've been trying to set up the AEM WKND Tutorial.  When I run mvn -PautoInstallSinglePackage clean install I get the following error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal com.github.eirslett:frontend-maven-plugin:1.7.6:npm (npm install) on project aem-guides-wknd.ui.frontend: Failed to run task: 'npm install' failed. java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "C:\Users\conta\git-repos\aem-guides-wknd\ui.frontend\node\node.exe" (in directory "C:\Users\conta\git-repos\aem-guides-wknd\ui.frontend"): CreateProcess error=193, %1 is not a valid Win32 application -> [Help 1]

 

Has anyone else run into this issue?

This is something to do with your local install of Node JS. 

 

Is this actually where you installed Node JS? 

C:\Users\conta\git-repos\aem-guides-wknd\ui.frontend\node\node.exe

 

What version of NodeJS are you running? The Wknd site needs v10+

That is where the tutorial project installed node for the ui.frontend part. It is my understanding it installs a separate node version for this? My machine is running node v12.9.1.
