Critical error? #42

Closed Pomax closed 6 years ago

Pomax commented 6 years ago

I'm hitting a ton of things like

{"HKLM\\Software\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall\\{F79F4961-D0D8-2893-B81D-7A60F300ED6F}":
J:\Junctions\Users\Mike\Documents\Git\temp\pluginboutique\node_modules\regedit\vbs\regList.wsf(0, 2) SWbemObjectEx: Critical error

without a way to apparently either suppress those errors, or actually do anything about them (because the error in no way explains what went wrong, and what I need to change as a dev to not run into this)

@Pomax is it possible for you to submit some piece of code so I can recreate this?

I no longer have any reproducing code per se, but https://github.com/ironSource/node-regedit/issues/43 was a rewrite of the code to prevent running into these errors (see the code comments in the processKeys function). Rewriting that to synchronous rather than callback code should show millions of these errors again.
