The system has Windows 10 Professional and all the necessary tools to perform that little tutorial. After a bit of research (Googling) I found the most straightforward manner to resolve this blocker was to do the following steps.

1. Open the “PowerShell Developer Settings” in Windows.
2. Enable the “Developer Mode” option.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the “PowerShell Developer Settings” window and modify the execution policy to allow PowerShell scripts to run without signing.
4. Execute the command “Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser” and confirm with “Y” when prompted.

Try running the command “nodemon server.js” again. It should work at this point.

If you have a more efficient and convenient fix for this problem, please feel free to share it.
