wintools exceeds maxBuffer (w/ fix)

[ndarville]

Windows 10, cmd.

Error

[17:25:03] Failed to fetch Spotify data: { err: { Error: stdout maxBuffer exceeded

Fix

Changing node_modules/wintools/ps.js like so fixed it: https://github.com/anodejs/node-wintools/commit/624c3cbf94e8dda35b03bd048f21f59b2b43258f

Solution

See if a different package version of wintools fixes it or replace the package with node-wintools instead of wintools instead.

Via nadavbar/node-spotify-webhelper#6.

node-wintools is wintools on npm

I can confirm this fix.
