The path of node js is not correctly recognized on Windows

• Electron-Builder Version: 22.11.7

• Node Version: 14.17.3

• Electron Version: 13.1.6
• Electron Type (current, beta, nightly): current

• Target: N/A

While running installing-app-deps or any other commands, following error occurs:

  • electron-builder  version=22.11.7
  • loaded configuration  file=package.json ("build" field)
  • installing production dependencies  platform=win32 arch=x64 appDir=D:\dev\cryptoElectron\src
  • spawning        command=C:\Users\Losse\AppData\Local\Temp\xfs-8e15e263\node yarn install --production cwd=D:\dev\cryptoElectron\src
  • exited          command=node code=-4058 pid=undefined

This may relate to the spawn method, the closest code I found is: https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/blob/5b4305ec336cf6f5866a26cde7fe99f18d7ac566/packages/app-builder-lib/src/util/yarn.ts#L108

@mmaietta Wow, thanks!

@mmaietta since process.env.npm_execpath already have a value, process.env.NPM_CLI_JS won’t be used.

I’m really headache about how to handle this, adding another env variable like USE_YARN_COMMAND which will trigger which may be a solution? How can we name this variable is another problem…
