Electron Browser outdated?

Stoffbeuteluwe

@rudibarani I have a Mac mini

lavolp3

@Stoffbeuteluwe go into the MagicMirror home folder and execute

npm install electron@latest

lavolp3

Testing now electron@6.0.10 on a
Raspberry Pi 4 with
npm@6.10.2 and
node@10.15.2

Will report back as soon as I have something

@Vauxdvihl

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
