so I am running a windows and I already installed node js. When I run ' which node" on my cmd is not recognized.

It does work if I run node -v it returns v10.6.0

same for npm -v

does that mean that it is installed? is 'which ' only for Unix systems?

Yes which is Unix only:

For an equivalent in Windows you can use where

C:\WINDOWS\system32>where node
C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe
