Describe the bug

When client logged and bot was restarted, i receive this error:

/app/node_modules/whatsapp-web.js/src/webCache/LocalWebCache.js:34
        const version = indexHtml.match(/manifest-([\d\\.]+)\.json/)[1];
                                                                    ^

Here is the client html. html.zip

Expected behavior

The initialize finish without errors.

Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue

I'm not sure what the mandatory steps are for this problem, as I only have one cell phone with this problem.

Relevant Code

In LocalWebCache.js

    async persist(indexHtml) {
        // extract version from index (e.g. manifest-2.2206.9.json -> 2.2206.9)
        const version = indexHtml.match(/manifest-([\d\\.]+)\.json/)[1];
        if(!version) return;

        const filePath = path.join(this.path, `${version}.html`);
        fs.mkdirSync(this.path, { recursive: true });
        fs.writeFileSync(filePath, indexHtml);
    }

A workaround provided by another user consists of manually placing the version in the code, like this:

    async persist(indexHtml) {
        // extract version from index (e.g. manifest-2.2206.9.json -> 2.2206.9)
        let version;
        if (indexHtml.match(/manifest-([\d\\.]+)\.json/) === null) {
            version = '2.2409.2';
        } else {
            version = indexHtml.match(/manifest-([\d\\.]+)\.json/)[1];
        }
        if (!version) return;

        const filePath = path.join(this.path, `${version}.html`);
        fs.mkdirSync(this.path, { recursive: true });
        fs.writeFileSync(filePath, indexHtml);
    }
