After seeing on http://www.espruino.com/ESP8266_Flashing#initial-flashing-on-windows , I tried to initial flash on windows to NodeMCU device(esp8266-esp12E).

After executing like below command:

But I saw the below error:

Please let us know how to change --flash-size argument, or change flashing address.

In addition, the type of my esp8266 board is "esp8266-esp12e-NodeMCU V2" board.
The information of board would be refered to the link, " https://components101.com/development-boards/nodemcu-esp8266-pinout-features-and-datasheet"

The page shows belows info. of my board.

Sorry for this question .
I found the miss typo of command "0x3fc0000 .\esp_init_data_default.bin 0x3fe0000 .\blank.bin"

I solved after changing "0x3fc000 .\esp_init_data_default.bin 0x3fe000 .\blank.bin" because of 4MB, total flash size.

Thanks to all.
