They keep running until killed.\r\n\r\nI tried with and without compression and it was the same. But my application runs fine when started from the IDE, and I've noticed that Web2Exe changes the package.json by adding a ton of stuff.\r\n\r\nSo I tried building the application as an uncompressed folder, then I overwrote the package.json there with my original one, and then the application worked properly.\r\n\r\nIt would seem that Web2Exe is adding invalid options to the package.json or something. It'd be great if it wouldn't modify it if you didn't want it to.\r\n\r\nSince I can't easily fix the package.json when using compression, and also would have to do it for each build, for each OS."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jyapayne/Web2Executable/issues/comments/261271447","html_url":"https://github.com/jyapayne/Web2Executable/issues/166#issuecomment-261271447","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jyapayne/Web2Executable/issues/166","id":261271447,"user":{"login":"Forecaster","id":942137,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/942137?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster","html_url":"https://github.com/Forecaster","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Forecaster/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-11-17T15:08:54Z","updated_at":"2016-11-17T15:08:54Z","body":"I've tried building with 16.1, which is my current dev-version because I'm lazy, and it still breaks. I've not tried versions prior to that but no builds I've made with 16.1 and up have worked.\r\n\r\nAlso I'm not sure what you mean by \"manipulating NW.js\". If you mean the settings in the gui of Web2Exe such as the name, window parameters etc I don't really need that. I configure my package.json properly manually. So unless you always need to modify it to build it I could do with an option to have it not touch it for users who'd rather write it themselves if possible.\r\n\r\n(I don't touch anything in the App Settings or Window Settings tabs)"}}
