Error: path argument is undefined on Windows

[Manoah Tervoort]

I'm getting the following error while trying to startup my electron-nuxt project on Windows. On Linux everything works fine.

When I open vite-plugin-electron-renderer/index.js:205 it's about the following lines:

node_modules_path = node_modules(config.root ? path.resolve(config.root) : process.cwd())[0];
cache = new Cache(path.join(node_modules_path, CACHE_DIR));

This is the full error I get in my terminal:

 ERROR  Cannot start nuxt:  The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined

Maybe you can explicitly set the root value to resolve it.

@caoxiemeihao, the application starts up successfully! I set vite: {root: process.cwd()} in nuxt config. I do get another error, but it doesn't seem blocking and might be unrelated:

[uncaughtException] This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). The promise rejected with the reason "Search string not found: "ts.executeCommandLine(ts.sys, ts.noop, ts.sys.args);"".

Yeah, this error looks not appear to be vite-plugin-electron-renderer 👀
