Any success on Windows?

Open aitte2 opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Windows 10 Pro latest, with Norwegian language.

Caption v2.0.0 and v2.0.1 have totally blank windows. I just see a windows regular window-titlebar but no content inside the window. It's pure white.

When I ran 2.0.0 it opened a secondary "auto updating" window which was blank too. So some code seems to be running, but all rendering is dead (white).

What happens when you run Caption in development mode? See https://github.com/gielcobben/caption#%EF%B8%8F-contribute

Do you see any errors in your terminal or dev tools?

@vernondegoede Is there some way to check the Electron console in the official .exe? Perhaps running it in CMD with some special flag? Or pressing a function key while the app is running? This is for my mother's windows computer so I can't install devtools. :]

Same problem here with Caption 2.0.1 on Windows 10.

npm install is also failing, log file here: https://gist.github.com/pjfsilva/75e228776152185b495672952735ec47

Anything I can help to debug or fix this?
