Uncaught Exception: Error: Cannot find module 'electron-settings'

[star114]

Hi,

I got an exception when starting to run the application that I compiled locally.

A JavaScript error occurred in the main process
Uncaught Exception: Error: Cannot find module 'electron-settings'
at Module._resolveFilename(module.js:470:15)
...

Do you have any ideas for it?

I went through the same issue.
I did mine with npm because yarn was giving me issues

install everything with npm install
but install electron-settings module version 2.2.2
so do npm install electron-settings@2.2.2
and then build with grunt build
it should work

I used the latest npm and grunt

@anitricks
Thanks!
I'll try it.

yarn is not working properly in my mac. (mac osx high sierra)
I tried to build using npm as @anitricks mentioned above, and it works well.

Thank you, @anitricks!!

yarn dependency is broken currently.

build is successful, but running built app is failing due to "cannot find the module 'electron-settings'"

Try this. I worked for me.
