Installer .exe throws JS exception: "Could not find module node-loader"

[seantiz]

Description

When trying to run the Proxyman.Setup exe for the last two releases (version 2.19.0 and version 2.18.0) the Javascript runtime within the installer will throw an exception and an alert dialog box prevents successful install.

The error message mentions not being able to find a module "node-loader" in the setup program's local data.

This error does not happen with the 2.17.0 release.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Download Proxyman.Setup.2.19.0.exe or Proxyman.Setup.2.18.0 on a Windows 11 machine from either the Releases page of this repository or the Proxyman for Windows site.

2. Double-click or run the downloaded Setup program.

3. Wait for it to run through the installation task and throw the exception

Current Behavior

The Setup program cannot complete its tasks. It will leave three open threads running in the background on Windows, but it will not correctly install Proxyman.

Expected Behavior

A successful installation of Proxyman on the Windows machine.

Environment

• App version: 2.19.0 or 2.18.0
• Windows/Linux version: Windows 11

I can't reproduce this issue, I can install and run the application fine on Windows 11.
I test with version 2.19.0 and 2.18.0

Ok, I will try and narrow it down over the next week or so. It is persistent behaviour on the client Windows 11 machine right now whenever upgrading to any version beyond 2.17.0
