Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/2743

How are you running AnythingLLM?

AnythingLLM desktop app

What happened?

On startup of the application I get an error message on Win 11 (see screenshot).
When I close it, the application seems to start normally. However PDFs can't be accessed by agent (if thats in anyway related?)

No problem! We have yet to repro this locally on any windows machine so getting the full error message - which would indicate where the issue lies - has not been recorded yet so it is still open

Same here whenever "ALLM" restarts in admin mode. I was monitoring #2710, #2743 as well. It's been occurring even if I update to v1.70.

Starting in powershell, here are the logs:

(Same case as wadid in issue #2710)

Actually, there was no "...resources\app.asar\dist-electron..." folder - only "resources\app.asar.unpacked" folder.

I installed using Desktop app (in admin mode as well) on Windows 10 64-bit on my fresh OS. My previous Windows 10 was OK but it was using versions below v1.0 back then.
ALLM runs fine even with the error, but web search isn't working (only web browsing).

I'll try docker mode later as this was the safest method to resolve this issue in the past.

Actually, there was no "...resources\app.asar\dist-electron..." folder - only "resources\app.asar.unpacked" folder.

App asars work like that, they are like zipped directories and so that file path is actually accurate and real, its just bundled inside of the ASAR.

web search isn't working (only web browsing).

The agent skill? Or do you mean web scraping? Either way this is good info, thanks
