                yes, lets try something not so new…

                do

                cd ~/MagicMirror
                rm -rf node_modules/electron
                npm install electron@6.0.12
                

                note that for other modules, you may also have to run electron-rebuild

                    Sorry about reviving an old thread but I thought you and others might want to know

                    Bro, I went ahead and installed npm install electron@latest (11.3.0) as an experiment. Both my MMM-ISS-Live and EARTH-Live modules were affected by electron. It appears the latest version of electron has fixed the problem, at least with these two modules

                      @mykle1 the current mm develop branch has a number of changes, including moving up to electron 11.2.1

                      i would suggest trying that too…
