HI, I also encountered this problem in window, Maybe you can try switching source

[trasherdk]

I'm running in Git bash with no problem:

admin@ACER-64BIT MINGW64 /c/Workspace/Github/electron-quick-start (master)
$ node -v && npm -v
v16.13.1
8.3.0

and

$ npm install

up to date, audited 87 packages in 2s

5 packages are looking for funding
  run `npm fund` for details

found 0 vulnerabilities

Try
npm i --save-dev --production electron

In windows system you can use this workaround.

• Powershell

$env:NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0

• CMD

 set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0

Warning: Setting the NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED environment variable to '0' makes TLS connections and HTTPS requests insecure by disabling certificate verification.

@VitoFanelli I would like to work on this issue, can you please assign it to me?

[erickzhao]

@arya-vats I don't think there's an active task to work on with this issue.

[arya-vats]

Well i was just trying to fix the old node modules that haven't been updated .

[erickzhao]

fix the old node modules

Could you elaborate on this? I'm not sure I understand.

In China, it may be a problem with the ladder. I set the ladder as a global agent and then installed it normally.

[blade-demon]

In .npmrc config the following content:

ELECTRON_MIRROR="https://npmmirror.com/mirrors/electron/"

then runnpm install

Don't use China mirror sources, such as: taobao
