npm ERR! gyp verb clean removing "build" directory
npm ERR! gyp verb command configure []
npm ERR! gyp verb check python checking for Python executable "python2.7" in the PATH

It isn't recommended to install windows-build-tools, as it is deprecated, and there are build tools from the Node.js installer.
To install it, follow the steps below.
- Head to nodejs.org, and download and run the LTS installer.
- On the page where it asks you about installing the build tools, check the box.
- When the installation has concluded, a PowerShell window will open and run the commands to install the tools.
EDIT: According to LeMIT's comment,
A complete uninstallation of Node.js, Python, and Visual Studio (including a registry cleanup) helped me.
This should install the build tools.
- Python 2.7
- Visual Studio 20--
