Node error - Fails to launch 1.9 stable

[ghost]

The Mod manager exits and fails to launch, oddly it works during the installation but if you close it and it completes the installation it will fail when launching from lutris.

Details:

OS arch linux Wine 5.6-1 Wine mono 5.0.0-1 Wine gecko 2.47.1-1 Winetricks 20200412-1

The information I could gather is that there is a problem between Microsoft's WSL1 and an Electron update. Please make sure you're using supported versions of Vortex and Wine:

1. Make sure to not update Vortex. Vortex's version should be no greater than 1.1.15 and the Node version should be 10.11.0. You can check that by opening Vortex > clicking on the three dots in the upper right corner > about.

2. Right click on Vortex from inside Lutris > Configure > Runner Options, Wine version should be set to lutris-5.2-x86_64

Ensuring no.1 should be enough in your case. If the Node version is at least 12.4.0 then you're certain to suffer from this problem.

The issue was caused by a change in behaviour in the update prompt. Before, Vortex would not install updates if the user ignored them, now it will only delay updates if the user ignores them.

Please, check the updated README with instructions on how to recover your installation and keep Vortex from updating again. I've also updated the installer to include the necessary instructions (and included some other fixes as well).

From my testing it seems it will not be possible to update Vortex before Wine releases an update to fix the issue.

Notify me as soon as your problem is resolved so I can close the issue.

I was having this problem on Manjaro and reverting to 1.1.15 and lutris-5.2 seems to have solved it. Thank you for the quick fix.

Still the same error output when I try to launch it from lutris. So I'm not sure whats going on...

Thank you for responding so quickly.

I'm 99% sure this problem is caused by Vortex updating because I can consistently reproduce and revert the bug. If you had the problem again it's probably because Vortex had already downloaded and scheduled an update by the time you disabled them.

If updates are coming in too fast, disconnect from the internet when you get the message informing about disabling updates and reconnect after updates have been disabled in Vortex.

Yes that worked! Disabling my connection at your warning prompt allowed it to install properly preventing the updates applying before its possible to prevent them.

Thank you very much for helping me with this issue.

I've found a fix to this (i'm succesfully running the latest version of Vortex through Wine). You need to run it from a terminal, so just enable CLI mode in System options.
