New Particle WB not working

Developer Tools Particle Workbench
1

New to Particle & just downloaded the VS workbench. I wanted to play with the NFC tag example program, but get this error

#include errors detected. Please update your includePath. Squiggles are disabled for this translation unit (C:\Users\Lawson\Documents\Work\BrightDrop\Particle\NFC_Tap).
cannot open source file "Particle.h"

I then tried to create a new project and got this
Cannot find module 'C:\Users\Lawson\AppData\Local\particle\node_modules\particle-cli\node_modules\bl\bl.js'. Please verify that the package.json has a valid "main" entry
