The dialog box opens when you click the Browse button browseButton.png   next to the Node Interpreter drop-down list in the Run/Debug Configuration: Node JS dialog or on the Node.js and NPM page.

Use this dialog box to configure Node.js installations as local and remote interpreters.

The term local Node.js interpreter denotes a Node.js installation on your computer. The term remote Node.js interpreter denotes a Node.js installation on a remote host or in a virtual environment set up in a Vagrant instance. See Configuring Node.js Interpreters for details.

When the dialog box opens from the Node.js and NPM page, you can only configure local interpreters installed on your computer. When the dialog box is accessed from the Run/Debug Configuration: Node JS dialog, both local and remote interpreters can be configured.
