Hyper: Windows 10 cannot access Preferences menu due to MS JScript error

[petercr]

• [x ] I am on the latest Hyper.app version
• [ x] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

• OS version and name:
• Hyper.app version:
• Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js:
• Relevant information from devtools _(CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere)_:
• The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app:

Issue

I just installed a fresh version of Hyper Terminal. And after opening the terminal which loads the default cmd.exe everythings seems to be working. But when I press Ctrl + , or go to the menu and click Open Preferences to open the settings menu I get Microsoft JScript runtime error. And so I am not able to edit any of the settings.

I'm not sure if this is a Microsoft error or a Hyper error

Here is a picture of the error I am receiving.

A fix for this (#2631) has been merged into the canary branch, but is not in the latest release. To fix this for, you can set a default program for "JavaScript" files in System Settings:

Alternatively, you can manually open C:\Users\{YOUR_USER}\.hyper.js in your text editor to edit your preferences.

Great thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I did search through the issues to see if I could find the same one, but I wasn't looking in the canary branch just the main one.
Thank you the issue has now been fixed, everything is working great 👍 👏
