I'm using Node.js 10 which is the recommended version and just trying to run a simple gulp task to compile some SCSS files. However, I am getting the following error.

Node Sass could not find a binding for your current environment: Windows 64-bit with Node.js 10.x Found bindings for the following environments: - Windows 64-bit with Node.js 8.x

Am I supposed to uninstall v10 and install an older version of Node.Js?

I think this can solve you problem.

By going into project folder till the location of node-sass folder and then execute:

npm rebuild node-sass --force

Alternative is

Delete node-saas and Do

npm install
