This error persists because of a fundamental architectural divergence between your system's Node.js runtime and Electron's bundled runtime. Root Cause Analysis: The ABI Divergence Node.js and Electron both rely on the V8 JavaScript engine. However, they rarely share the exact same version of V8 at any given release poin...
