ERROR NativeBinaryHasFailedError: The find-window process failed with the 1 exit code.

What is your Scenario?

I upgraded to the latest release candidate (1.17.2-rc.2), and trying to run any test using any browser, on MacOS. The tests fail to start, and hang, unable to exit using the terminal.

I can stop the node session using activity monitor… but if I try to repeat then node isn’t started the 2nd time and I have to close the terminal window to exit.

What is the Current behavior?

An error is returned, and the tests don’t start

The "browsers" option from the configuration file will be ignored.

What is the Expected behavior?

Testcafe should trigger tests as per normal.

This only seems to be happening on my laptop, since our CircleCi runs are working (which uses Linux). I’ve uninstalled testcafe-browser-tools + testcafe and did a clean install, also attempted running with sudo in case it’s a permissions thing… no luck
