Trying to install the mediasoup library on a Windows machine via:
npm install mediasoup@3
The app that needs this library is being developed on a MacOS machine and works fine when being installed. The live app will be hosted on a Windows Server.
When running the command in an empty npm folder on the Windows machine, it returns the following error.
npm WARN deprecated querystring@0.2.0: The querystring API is considered Legacy. new code should use the URLSearchParams API instead.

The mediasoup installation docs show the pre-requisites needed for the installation which seemingly are all installed.
Is there something else that needs to be configured or why is this error being shown?
