What is the problem

When I edit the main process in electron/main.ts, the file change is detected and recompiled, but electron-reload hard resets but never reopens the application.

Logs:

How to reproduce

Source code: https://github.com/ericwang401/echo-soundboard Main process file: https://github.com/ericwang401/echo-soundboard/blob/master/electron/main.ts

  1. Run npm run electron:dev
  2. edit the console log in line 34 of the main process file

Then the file change will be detected and recompiled and then this is when it doesn't relaunch.
