Try to use full absolute path to extensions folder

I had this problem too. This is a hard nut to crack unless you specifically look at the Node.js documentation for absolute file path formats. What is an absolute file path varies by operating system. Node.js documentation on absolute file paths is here.

You may have to add or replace forward/back slashes until it fits the required format.

POSIX (AKA Mac and Unix):

path.isAbsolute('/foo/bar') // true path.isAbsolute('/baz/..') // true

Windows:

path.isAbsolute('//server') // true path.isAbsolute('\\server') // true path.isAbsolute('C:/foo/..') // true path.isAbsolute('C:\foo\..') // true

I hope this helps others that have the same issue,
