I'm having issues with the rubyinstaller pack. I deleted the path that the instructions direct me towards and that may be one of the things causing an issue. There is an error message that appears after I type "rails s" which I have downloaded the execjs gem files. However it still repeats the error message after. Please let me know what my code illiterate brain is doing wrong. BTW this is for WINDOWS.

You need a JavaScript runtime, such as NodeJS. Rails uses this in development mode to compile assets.
