You have set your JAVA_HOME to point to your JRE bin folder. NativeScript CLI requires JDK, not JRE. Also when setting JAVA_HOME, it should point to the root of the JAVA installation, not to the bin directory. For example: JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_66
You can download latest JDK from here

I was setting JAVA_PATH in /bin folder so then I remove /bin and voilá
This solve my problem. Thanks so much
