__filename is not defined (node.js)

So I was searching for JavaScript variable thats return file name and I found __filename. Problem started when I wanted to use it and it returned an error: 
PS C:\Users\Admin\Programowanie\Discord.js> node FOFMFFJSC.js
file:///C:/Users/Admin/Programowanie/Discord.js/FOFMFFJSC.js:7
  console.log(`Załadowano bota ${readyClient.user.tag} w wersji ${BotVersion} - ${__filename}!`);
                                                                                  ^

This is not a JavaScript server. Java and JavaScript are completely different languages. See: How is JavaScript different from Java?
