Electron definitely is known to be broken on 14393. Supposedly people have gotten vscode working on 15002, and that runs in electron, so it might work. You might have to setuid the sandbox process, not sure.

Link? Be great if someone got libchromiumcontent working (I haven't looked at it for a couple of months).

OP here is #546, fixed in 14915.

[fpqc]

@therealkenc Wait, nevermind, it was the Linux version of sublimetext I think. I could be wrong, not sure.

[TheoMer]

@fpqc Where can I obtain the 15002 upgrade from? My current update status claims I am fully up to date.

[benhillis]

@TheoMer - you have to join the Windows Insider program.

[TheoMer]

@benhillis Yes I'm already a member, but the update file obtained from https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10 does absolutely nothing when run. I get the 'checking for latest update' message, immediately followed by 'Thanks for updating...', but nothing in-between actually happened.

[fpqc]

@TheoMer just download the latest available Win10 insider ISO, mount it, and do the upgrade install from it. Then in the Windows Update settings, under insider program, set your ring to the fast ring.

[TheoMer]

Thus far I only have access to build 14986 of the Insider program, which I have successfully installed. Running node_modules/.bin/electron . no longer causes any errors, but the application doesn't launch either.

As there are numerous reports of issues with build 15002, and as I've set my insider subscription to slow, I guess I'll wait for issues with 15002 to be ironed out first.

[therealkenc]

#1267 ref for when you're back.

[TheoMer]

@therealkenc Thanks 👍
