Description
- Electron version: latest (That Try)
- Operating system: Microsoft Windows [Versión 10.0.10586]
Expected behavior
Install from "npm" on Windows
Actual behavior
I can not use Electron because it is not installed correctly, despite using the shell in administrator mode. Note that when installing dependencies, it does not finish displaying the dependency tree that normally shows "npm".
How to reproduce
git clone https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start
cd electron-quick-start
npm install
npm start
> electron-quick-start@1.0.0 start PATH\electron-quick-start
> electron .
PATH\electron-quick-start\node_modules\electron\index.js:9
throw new Error('Electron failed to install correctly, please delete node_modules/' + path.basename(__dirname) + ' and try installing again')
^

That's generally a really bad idea. Does your NPM/Node environment work without admin mode?
MarshallOfSound commentedon Jan 22, 2017
I mean, have you tried doing what the error suggests and and deleting "node_modules/electron" and trying again?
LizanLycan commentedon Jan 22, 2017
@MarshallOfSound That's right, I did it several times.
It seems strange to me one thing, during the installation of modules, apparently does not finish correctly, because it remains as follows:
$ npm install
> electron@1.4.15 postinstall C:\Users\Lizandro Zerpa\Desktop\SisTelSim\SisTelSim_Dev\electron-quick-start\node_modules\electron
> node install.js
(It remains on hold)
LizanLycan commentedon Jan 22, 2017
@enlight I have installed multiple global instances, and they work correctly. I rarely have to install them with an administrator.
MarshallOfSound commentedon Jan 22, 2017
@LizanLycan It remains on
node install.js
while it downloads Electron. Please let it finish and don't cancel it halfway through.LizanLycan commentedon Jan 23, 2017
@MarshallOfSound Ok that's what I've been doing. I was looking for the size of the package to give me an idea of how long it might take, but I did not get it. I left it for over 1 hour. Still waiting, thanks for the comment.
MarshallOfSound commentedon Jan 23, 2017
Try
It should output a progress bar for the download 👍
LizanLycan commentedon Jan 23, 2017
@MarshallOfSound Thank you very much. I can now see the download progress. I'll wait until I finish and comment. 👍

Apparently little hard joy.

Looks like you're having some network issues (which are out of our control 😢 )
You can download the ZIP file manually in your browser from here and place it in your
C:\Users\<username>\.electron
folder. Then it won't need to download itself 👍nikparmar commentedon Jan 23, 2017

@MarshallOfSound helped me to correct this by observing the download and installation process with:
npm install electron -g --verbose
With this command you will install global Electron. You can not cancel until the download process is complete. Delete the folder node_modules and reinstall.
brandondtran commentedon Feb 19, 2017
@LizanLycan
Was your solution to install electron both globally and locally? Or one or the other?
Please help...I've tried everything...
