Install npmbox on a windows offline machine

I'm trying to install npmbox on an offline machine running windows server.

According to the docs, after creating npmbox.npmbox on an online machine, I have to move to the offline one, copy the file, and run tar -xvfo npmbox.npmbox.
I can't use the -o option, so If I remove it I can move on.

Afterwards, running tar -xvf npmbox.npmbox I run

npm install --global --cache ./.npmbox-cache --optional --no-registry --fetch-retries 0 --fetch-retry-factor 0 --fetch-retry-mintimeout 1 --fetch-retry-maxtimeout 2 npmbox

And this error pops.

TypeError: Parameter 'url' must be a string, not object

Any ideas? Thanks

Here's the issue that helped me solve my problem.

Just change --no-registry with --cache-min 999999 and that should install from cache straight forward.
