Have you tried https://github.com/kelektiv/node.bcrypt.js/wiki/Installation-Instructions#microsoft-windows ?

Is this still an issue? Can this be closed?

I have the same problem. Using this link still unable to install bcrypt with yarn, at the same time with npm it is ok. I guess it is not bcrypt issue, but yarn's one.

[smeijer]

Yeah, same issue here. When installing with npm, no issues. But whenever I run yarn in a project that uses bcrypt, I end up with Cannot find module 'bcrypt'.

I managed to solve this by running the command:
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential python and then yarn add bcrypt.
