Can't build app on localhost Windows 10 - Process out of memory

Up until now I have only used my imac and my macbook to build my app. I now want to be able to use my Windows pc as well but after 2 days of messing around, I just can’t find a solution. Basically, I am getting this error…

C:\Users\Me\Desktop\myapp>meteor --settings settings-development.json                                             [[[[[ C:\Users\Me\Desktop\myapp]]]]]

FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_LAST Allocation failed - process out of memory

C:\Users\Me\Desktop\myapp>

Obviously it is related to running out of memory. It always happens when the Linking process is running. What I have gathered from many articles/threads etc. is that I need to set the TOOL_NODE_FLAGS="--max-old-space-size=4096".

For some reason though, after I run set TOOL_NODE_FLAGS="--max-old-space-size=4096", I am no longer able to run ‘meteor run’. the command prompt thinks for a second, and then nothing happens…

So if I run C:\Users\Me\Desktop\myapp>meteor --settings settings-development.json
I get the error above.

If I run C:\Users\Serks\Desktop\cakenote>set TOOL_NODE_FLAGS="--max-old-space-size=4096"
And then run C:\Users\Me\Desktop\myapp>meteor --settings settings-development.json.
Nothing happens and the cursor returns to…`C:\Users\Serks\Desktop\cakenote

Does anyone know how I can get meteor to start with more memory on Windows 10 through cmd line?

Thanks in advance.
