I almost finished the coding for a beginner Desktop Application in electron. The problem arises when I want to package them into an executable .exe file. It shows Command failed: powershell.exe -nologo -noprofile -command "& { Add-Type -A 'System.IO.Compression.FileSystem'; [IO.Compression.ZipFile]::ExtractToDirectory('C:\Users\mesba\AppData\Local\electron\Cache\electron-v5.0.6-win32-ia32.zip', 'C:\Users\mesba\AppData\Local\Temp\electron-packager\win32-ia32-template'); }"
and also in the beggining, it shows that WARNING: --asar does not take any arguments, it only has sub-properties (see --help)
As usual, I tried npm run package-win but it didn't work. I look here and there and I think there is a problem with PowerShell Path variable but I don't know how to fixed this issue.
This is my Package.json { "name": "hello-world", "version": "1.0.0", "description": "", "main": "index.js", "scripts": { "start": "electron .", "package-win": "electron-packager . electron-tutorial-app --overwrite --asar=true --platform=win32 --arch=ia32 --icon=assets/icons/win/icon.ico --prune=true --out=release-builds --version-string.CompanyName=CE --version-string.FileDescription=CE --version-string.ProductName=\"Shopping List\"" }, "author": "", "license": "ISC", "dependencies": { "electron": "^5.0.6" }, "devDependencies": { "electron-packager": "^14.0.1" } }
This is the Error Message
WARNING: --asar does not take any arguments, it only has sub-properties (see --help) Packaging app for platform win32 ia32 using electron v5.0.6
