Steps to reproduce

  • built an electron app using only npm, never touching yarn
  • tried to run electron-forge in the package

Additional information

It may be worth noting I have my electron app in a workspace, though as far as I can tell this should work fine.

I believe this might be similar to #3164 which we haven't fixed yet. Does passing NODE_INSTALLER=npm as an environment variable when running the command for you?

That worked, thanks! I'll close this since the issue you referenced is a duplicate.

Both yarn and npm don't work, what should I do? Thanks for your help.
