Nvm for Windows Settings.txt not found error

I started getting the following error when trying to run nvm for windows on my work development system.

NVM ERROR open \settings.txt: The system cannot find the file specified

The User variable NVM_HOME was removed from the system. NVM would not function at all without the above error.

I found the following ProgrammerAH - NVM ERROR open \settings.txt: The system cannot find the file specified solution. Now since I am using NVM for windows without admin I am not needing the NVM_SYMLINK.

A Fix re-add the NVM_HOME user variable

1. Open Start and search for “Environment”
2. Select the one named “Edit environment variables for your account”
3. Verify missing variable NVM_HOME
4. Click New...
5. Set the Variable name to NVM_HOME
6. Set the Variable value to C:\where\you\installed\nvmDir
7. Press OK to close the New User Variable window
8. Press OK again to save the changes and close the Environment Variables windows.
9. Re-open any programs / terminals where you were trying to run nvm and try again
