Hi Erwan

Just got updated to version 3.2.0 ā€“ same problem.

I uninstalled and reinstalled and still no luck.

Iā€™m not familiar with Electron ā€“ can/should I install it manually and the reinstall your program?

Hi,

let's try this:

Installation via Windows Store and manual installation can work together, so you can try it. The only thing you need to have is Node installed on your PC, then :

I will investigate about your error.

Hi Erwan

Well I think you helped identify the problemā€¦

I didnā€™t have a folder in AppData after uninstalling the program but when I ran ā€œnpm iā€, I got this error:

:\Users\poneill\Documents\Projects\system-designer-electron-master>npm i npm ERR! Windows_NT 10.0.17134 npm ERR! argv "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" "C:\Users\poneill\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js" "i" npm ERR! node v8.12.0 npm ERR! npm v3.3.9 npm ERR! code MODULE_NOT_FOUND

npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request: npm ERR! C:\Users\poneill\Documents\Projects\system-designer-electron-master\npm-debug.log

Not sure why this is happening on one PC and not the others thoughā€¦

Hi,

you get this error after npm i because you need to update npm I think. To do so, run npm i npm@latest -g and retry then with npm i, it should work.

If not, you can use the HTML5 version of System Designer, it has 95% of the feature of the desktop version, works offline and all your data are saved in your browser (and never send to a server).

Hi Erwan

Thereā€™s clearly something wrong with my PC ā€“ I think it may have multiple instances of Node/NPM installed.

I will purse the ā€œCannot find module 'internal/util/types'ā€ error separately and once resolved, will get back to you if I still have troubles with System Designer.

I still have it running on my laptop so can export the files as required.

Thank you for your help thus far ā€“ much appreciated! šŸ˜Š
