      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      At the very least, deleting C:\Program Files\nodejs is problematic and probably unnecessary. nvm may also modify global state somehow, I’m not sure about that.

      Use Case

      As a... evergreen user
      I want... the Node.js driver to not modify global state
      So that... my own code is unaffected
