Need to update Electron #59

Closed jmflaherty closed 4 months ago

jmflaherty commented 4 months ago

Starting today, upon opening the app I face this message. So updating Electron to use a more modern version of Chromium is required to keep the app functioning.

Updating the electron dev dependencies to their latest version worked for me.

    "electron": "^28.2.3",
    "electron-builder": "^24.9.1",

I'll try to find the time to create a PR.

Opened #60 to update the dependencies. Also found #45, where this issue is discussed and a workaround provided.
