random blank white square in brave browser windows 10

That makes me think this is related to having other (probably incompatible) versions of some of the key files on my machine somewhere, perhaps in my search path. Hopefully we can learn something about why I'm getting the white screen. I need to run out now but I'll check in again later. If I just start a command prompt or gitbash it reports node 7.6.0 though. I have VS2017 installed, and with the optional web tools in VS2017 and even VS2015, I may have another version of node installed. I do have the 'anniversary update' of Windows 10 installed. I also ran npm run win-fixnpm again just in case it needed all this before it ran. So I installed the 8.1 SDK for VS2015, started a VS2015 MSBuild shell, and reran npm config -g set msvs_version 2015 just to be safe, and npm install bloom-filter-cpp is still failing with the '_pfnDliNotifyHook2: redefinition' problem. That seemed to be a hint when reading this which seems related since it's the nodegyp rebuild that seems to be generating the error. I have VS2015 and VS2017 (Community Ed for both) installed, and I found when I ran the VS2015 setup -> Modify that I didn't have the 8.1 SDK installed (I had 10.0 SDK installed though).
