title: BROWSER SYNC headless environment ERROR
body: <p>So i just started learning Angular 2 and after running the <code>npm install</code> command on git bash and opening my text editor, I was trying to run the <code>npm start</code> command to start the typescript and lite server. Everything went well until this error showed up <code>[1] [BS] Couldn't open browser (if you are using BrowserSync in a headless environment, you might want to set the open option to false)</code> and the browser didn't open. Here's how it looks 
  `</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ npm start
  
  [1] [BS] Access URLs:

  <p>I'm using a Windows 8 64bit OS and Chrome is the default browser</p>
  
  <p>A related question <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/42845813/8130472">https://stackoverflow.com/a/42845813/8130472</a> was answered and suggested the option of adding C:\Windows\System32 to the System Variables but i don't know how to go about it. </p>
  
  <p>Also, on this link, <a href="https://forums.bignerdranch.com/t/browser-sync-couldnt-open-browser/10936/4" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://forums.bignerdranch.com/t/browser-sync-couldnt-open-browser/10936/4</a> another suggestion was to add the <code>--browser"chrome.exe"(Windows)</code>. That didn't work either.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions? Or Solutions?</p>
