When I'm packaging the build using electron-builder I'm getting the issue is
• electron-builder version=20.8.1
• loaded configuration file=package.json ("build" field)
• writing effective config file=dist\electron-builder-effective-config.yaml
• rebuilding native production dependencies platform=win32 arch=x64
• packaging platform=win32 arch=x64 electron=1.8.3 appOutDir=dist\win-unpacked
• default Electron icon is used reason=application icon is not set

I'm also try this command in root admin but getting same problem.

For some reasons electron-builder cannot access cache dir. Workaround: set env ELECTRON_BUILDER_CACHE to some another dir.

[stanshillis]

alternatively in package.json set cache path as follows

"build": {
    ...
    "electronDownload": {
      "cache": "... path ..."
    }
  }

More details in the following document https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/blob/master/docs/configuration/configuration.md

do not help, after digging it appears to me that is anti-virus scanning the newly downloaded assets, thus blocking the file/dir rename/moving operation.

So how can this be fixed?, I have been facing this issue for quite a while now. I first of all thought it was because of the whitespace in my filepath so i created a user without a whitespace in the name but didnt fix the issue. If there is any workaround, i would really appreciate. @develar please could you expatiate on how i could change the cache path.

In case this helps others... I was encountering the same issue, but if I instead ran a command prompt as administrator, then it just worked. Don't know why, but it's something others can try.

[yalzeee]

Thanks a lot @Jeff-Mott-OR I would like to know if you're using yarn or npm for all your dependendencies or just for electron builder

[Jeff-Mott-OR]

@yalzeee npm for all.

[yalzeee]

@Jeff-Mott-OR lastly are you using a windows or mac?

[Jeff-Mott-OR]

@yalzeee Win

[yalzeee]

Finally Fixed It. Turns out it was my antivirus that was blocking the process. If you're facing the same problem try to disable real-time scanning and enable it when youre doine with the first build process.

[boisamazing]

In my case, turing off Windows Defender - Real-time protection saved my ass.

[youyinnn]

yeah, I turned off my anti-virus application, and it did solve the problem about cannot move downloaded into final location (another process downloaded faster?) error=rename

saved my ass too

[vineetpsat]

just disable anti virus. It works for me.

[dirkhe1051931999]

yes , I close huorong（火绒）and windows defense，It can resolve this problem
