This might be an electron incompatibility thing? I think you may have upgraded to an incompatible version

@tcccorp change the electron version to 11.0.1. I had the same issue so this solved it.

I have the same issue and I've changed electron to 11.0.1 which did not resolve the issue for me. I do however get a new error electron exited with signal SIGABRT.
