Hi there,

Our Windows CI started to fail without any real reason. The error is:

```auto
Using NVS for managing Node.js versions on Windows (BETA)
0.62s$ git clone --single-branch https://github.com/jasongin/nvs $NVS_HOME
From https://github.com/eclipse-theia/theia

Cloning into 'C:\ProgramData/nvs'...

The command "nvs add 10" failed and exited with 1 during .

```

Builds:

A restart does not help. Does anyone know what has changed? Thank you!

Now, it works again. It must have been a temporary issue.

Not temporary, will hit again. Your, node version is not cached. We have same issue [Add 13.5+ to pre-installed Node.js versions](https://travis-ci.community/t/add-13-5-to-pre-installed-node-js-versions/8010)
