Steps to repro (on Linux):

2. npm install
3. DEBUG_PROD=true npm run package-win
4. Instal and run on Windows from command line, this is output:

Yes, my app uses native dependencies. I hope that 7zip fix helps!

@amilajack was pointing out that, if you’re using native dependencies, you shouldn’t expect to be able to build your app for different platform than the one you’re developing on (e.g. building for Windows on Linux like the OP). AFAIK, this isn’t due to anything specific with this project, but is just generally a limitation of node’s native tooling in general.
