Getting a strange exception all of a sudden

[jkellywilkerson]

This error appears when running the .exe from the Releases (latest version) as well as from a new Rebuild from source.

What parameters do you use? The error indicates that the headless chrome installation is broken/missing.

[jkellywilkerson]

No parameter...pure double-click execution from Windows Explorer. It worked well like that back in December and stopped working suddenly. I've tried it on several different machines and not sure what else to try.

[jkellywilkerson]

Chrome is installed and set as the default browser. Not sure how to install/repair a "headless" version. But will see what Google says.

[jkellywilkerson]

Headless Chrome does work on the machine in question, but I still get the same error. This command does produces the expected PDF: chrome --headless --disable-gpu --print-to-pdf="C:\ChromeStatus.pdf" https://www.chromestatus.com/

Anything additional I can try?

[jkellywilkerson]

Pointing the executable directly to Chrome using the --chrome-path="" worked. Not sure what changed in the environment that would cause the "headless" option to stop working, but this appears to work:

azuredevops-export-wiki.exe --chrome-path="C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

[MaxMelcher]

it might also work if you delete the Win64-901912... folder that stores the google chrome headless copy. the converter downloads a fresh copy and the issue should go away. Thanks for letting me know!
