Hi,
this issue is probably related to Electron<https://electronjs.org>, so what you can do is:
* try to remove and reinstall the app to see if it is better,
* if not, wait for one day or two: a new version of System Designer (v3.2.0) will be available very soon on the Windows Store with an updated version of Electron,
* if you want to test right now the update, you can build your own version of System Designer for Windows<https://github.com/design-first/system-designer-electron> and check if you still have the issue.
Hope it helps.

Hi Erwan
Just got updated to version 3.2.0 – same problem.
I uninstalled and reinstalled and still no luck.
I’m not familiar with Electron – can/should I install it manually and the reinstall your program?
Thanks for your help 😊
Best regards,
Paul

Hi, let's try this:
Installation via Windows Store and manual installation can work together, so you can try it. The only thing you need to have is Node installed on your PC, then :
I will investigate about your error. Erwan |
Hi Erwan
Well I think you helped identify the problem…
I didn’t have a folder in AppData after uninstalling the program but when I ran “npm i”, I got this error:
---

Not sure why this is happening on one PC and not the others though…
Thanks Erwan

Hi,
let's try this:
* uninstall System Designer,
* remove the folder C:\Users\[you_user_name]\AppData\Roaming\System Designer and
* re-install System Designer.
Installation via Windows Store and manual installation can work together, so you can try it. The only think you need to have is Node<https://nodejs.org/en/> installed on your PC, then :
* download the zip<https://github.com/design-first/system-designer-electron/archive/master.zip> from the GitHub repository,
* unzip it,
* open the command tool and go to system-designer-electron-master folder,
* run npm i and
* run npm start.
I will investigate about your error.

Hi, you get this error after If not, you can use the HTML5 version of System Designer, it has 95% of the feature of the desktop version, works offline and all your data are saved in your browser (and never send to a server). Erwan |
Hi Erwan
There’s clearly something wrong with my PC – I think it may have multiple instances of Node/NPM installed.
I will purse the “Cannot find module 'internal/util/types'” error separately and once resolved, will get back to you if I still have troubles with System Designer.
I still have it running on my laptop so can export the files as required.
Thank you for your help thus far – much appreciated! 😊

Paul

Hi,
you get this error after npm i because you need to update npm I think. To do so, run npm i npm@latest -g and retry then with npm i, it should work.
If not, you can use the HTML5 version of System Designer<https://designfirst.io/designer/>, it has 95% of the feature of the desktop version, works offline and all your data are saved in your browser (and never send to a server).
