SOLVED - Not able to create a meteor project (promise_server.js)

help

Just tried to create a new meteor project… This was working earlier, but has just stopped. Last thing I did was to install node inspector in an attempt to debug the server.

meteor create test
C:\Users\rich\AppData\Local.meteor\packages\meteor-tool\1.4.2_3\mt-os.windows.x86_32\dev_bundle\lib\node_modules\meteor-promise\promise_server.js:190
throw error;
^

SOLVED

It turns out that in the directory where I was trying to create a new project there was a .meteor folder
E.g. I was trying to create test project in the Meteor folder
-Meteor --.meteor --project one --project two
If I delete this folder then the create succeeds
