Can not work with pkg.

[kkqy]

If I use pkg(https://github.com/zeit/pkg) to pack my project, this module can't work,and it shows:

Error: vbscript process reported unknown error code 1
    at ChildProcess.<anonymous> (E:\snapshot\client_installer\node_modules\regedit\index.js:298:20)
    at Object.onceWrapper (events.js:273:13)
    at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:187:15)
    at maybeClose (internal/child_process.js:961:16)
    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:248:5)

Is there any way to fix it?

Have you tried setting an external VBS location in the package? Refer to #60 for more information (It's for ASAR but it may work for your app as well, take a look and see if it works). The readme also has information on how to use that.

I've done this way and i just need to have my package and vbs at the same level. Obviously you can decide to change level.

    let regedit = require('regedit')
    const pathNode = require('path');
    const appDir = pathNode.resolve()
    await regedit.setExternalVBSLocation(appDir + '/vbs');
    regedit = require('regedit').promisified

if you are using electron-forge you should set your config like this

const config: ForgeConfig = {
  packagerConfig: {
    extraResource: ["node_modules/regedit/vbs"],
  },
};

then the scripts will go to (on Windows)

C:\Users\$USER\AppData\Local\electron-app\app-1.0.0\resources\vbs

so you can just

const vbsDir = path.join(process.resourcesPath, "vbs");
setExternalVBSLocation(vbsDir);
