I also encountered the same error.

I solved mine by additionally running the following command: devDependency seems to be missing at npx electron-forge import .

$ npm install --save-dev @electron-forge/plugin-fuses

The devDependency list is implemented in the following code, which could be added here.

npm install --save-dev @electron-forge/plugin-fuses then npm run make again worked for me~

+1 on this. Came here to report this issue

+1. Faced the same problem.

After installing @electron-forge/plugin-fuses in devDependencies "npm run make" works without errors:

npm install @electron-forge/plugin-fuses --save-dev
