Thanks for reporting @d-blackburn.

Were you able to Auth with the PAT option?

d-blackburn commented 9 hours ago

No problem @setchy!

Yeah, I just switched over to use the PAT instead, works a treat!

I was able to recreate this on my Windows VM.

Interestingly, it works on macOS...

Thinking out loud, this particular GitHub authentication method has been problematic for a while, requires parts of electron we want to remove #650, and needs a complete overhaul.
