It’s just not run
Well, first of all: Use a different directory.

Hi @ilink,
As rhywden said, the first thing to change is the directory you’re trying to create a Meteor App in. Messing with that folder could completely destroy your windows installation
Secondly, 99% of Windows issues with Meteor are caused by anti-virus slowing down file operations, as there are A LOT of files involved in node apps.
I always add exclusions to Windows Defender for
node.exe
7z.exe
choco.exe
meteor.bat
mongod.exe
and the meteor folder at C:\Users%USERNAME%\AppData\Local.meteor\
This speeds up installs, updates, and builds by about 500%
After adding these exclusions, try again and give it a bit of time to finish
