Works perfectly in development, but after building the app it's throwing the following error. 🤔 how it works in development

FinalizationRegistry is not imported in server.js

A JavaScript error occurred in the main process
Uncaught Exception:
ReferenceError: FinalizationRegistry is not defined

What version of Electron are you using?

pranavwani commented

@nornagon Electron v12.0

nornagon commented

@pranavwani strange, v12 definitely defines FinalizationRegistry. Would it be possible for you to provide a small example, perhaps using Electron Fiddle or based on electron-quick-start, that reproduces the issue?

FinalizationRegistry is defined by V8 itself, so it's surprising that this would be not defined.

pranavwani commented

@nornagon Sorry for late. I'll share the code base soon

Nokel81 commented

I found that @electron/remote MUST be a dep (not a devDep) when working with webpack. Maybe that helps?

pranavwani commented

@nornagon @Nokel81 issue was fixed in the latest version: 1.2.1

I know this issue is closed, but if you find yourself running into this on latest versions, update your node environment. I ran into this on electron 16 and @electron/remote v2.0.1. Updating to node 16 fixed it for me.
