Open pippo73 opened 4 years ago

On my win10 pc, I start the app, it updates everything, and I find the icon on the traybar. But when I select one of the options ("open in browser", "load in stremio web", or "load in stremio app" , nothing happens...

do I miss something?

I recently got a similar issue on my own app that also uses the open module to open links programmatically.

@sungshon My theory is that the open module broke on Win after some update, I'll try updating the module in my app to see if that fixes it. You should probably try updating it too.

@BurningSands70 This is a strange issue, I've been unable to reproduce it, I also noticed that you use shell.openExternal from Electron in your project, not the open module. I think something else might be breaking this.. but I can't be sure of what.. the open module doesn't seem to have any specific commit related to fixing this in their history.

@sungshon

Yeah, I realised I was using shell.openExternal() after I posted, I'm also suspecting something else.. maybe a firewall or AV blocking the web pages opening?

If I ever figure it out, I'll tell u too.
