We've been going through a lot of work to update Automattic/wp-desktop so that it uses the from-source version of the spell-checker. Previously it was using a prebuilt spell-checker and had similar issues. We'll try and swing around to bring that knowledge here and resolve this with it. As a plus the spell-checking started working better and started working in Windows where it previously hadn't.

@qualitymanifest That's ubuntu, and it seems like it brought up in 2019. I don't know what the resolution is. Guess I'll go hack something else in the meanwhile. Thanks.

@danielh0t I'm thinking it's the same issue, with electron-spellchecker not building on node v12. Based on your error message I think you're using node 12.14.1.

Switching node versions is easy on mac/linux using nvm use <version>, not sure about with windows but it looks like this is probably a good option https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows

Whenever I install this repo I switch to node 10.16.0 but I think anything before v12 would probably work
