@JaydenDev Side comment: I have to say that this template's helpful. It took me less time then it would've normally to create this issue.

It's a known issue that EXE binaries dont work properly, in fact none of them do. They all have the same error, deb64 rpm64 and win64

I'll try to fix it.

[jdev082]

you'll have to fix it for Win/Mac/Linux

[hello-smile6]

you'll have to fix it for Win/Mac/Linux

If I'm right, it'll take less than 30 seconds.

[hello-smile6]

Well, I was right. Unfortunately, I introduced another bug. I'll fix that, then we'll finally have some binaries!

[hello-smile6]

@JaydenDev Told you!

Run this:

sudo npm i -g node@latest npm@latest npx@latest
sudo apt update
npm update

Does it still happen? It works for me.

See if that works. Also, try doing git pull again.

You are not cooperating like a good collaborator would. Just because it works for you, that's not an excuse to not fix it on other systems :( Might as well revert all your commits that broke freecat :(

Never mind, didn't work for me. I fixed it, there was a problem with it because I forgot to rewrite something.

[hello-smile6]

@JaydenDev Figured it out, about to merge once I test.
