Hi,
Do you have go command in your PATH?

[Ghardo]

Hi,

yes go bin path is in %PATH%

[Mohamed El Bahja]

Try to change the engineName in guark.yaml file from chrome to webview

[Ghardo]

Hi,

i got only a console output after changing to webview. No Window opened.

PS D:\src\guark> guark run
warning ..\..\package.json: No license field
✔ UI server started successfully.
✔ Starting guark dev app...
exit status 3221225781

maybe from your OS, you can just download chrome and use chrome engine in guark.yaml

I have chrome version 89.0.4389.90 installed and other electron apps with chrome engines are working but guark still failing

[Ghardo]

I found the problem. The install path from chrome was not in PATH. I added the PATH and now it works thanks
