You have to get the ipcMain class from electron. So add ipcMain to your require statement

[nova wing]

you don't require ipcMain...

[honest olive]

and in my update.html :

<script>
    const { ipcRenderer } = require('electron');
    const version = document.getElementById('version');
    
    ipcRenderer.send('app_version');
    ipcRenderer.on('app_version', (event, arg) => {
      ipcRenderer.removeAllListeners('app_version');
      version.innerText = 'Version ' + arg.version;
    });
    const notification = document.getElementById('notification');
    const message = document.getElementById('message');
    const restartButton = document.getElementById('restart-button');
    ipcRenderer.on('update_available', () => {
      ipcRenderer.removeAllListeners('update_available');
      message.innerText = 'A new update is available. Downloading now...';
      notification.classList.remove('hidden');
    });
    ipcRenderer.on('update_downloaded', () => {
      ipcRenderer.removeAllListeners('update_downloaded');
      message.innerText = 'Update Downloaded. It will be installed on restart. Restart now?';
      restartButton.classList.remove('hidden');
      notification.classList.remove('hidden');
    });
    function closeNotification() {
  notification.classList.add('hidden');
    }
    function restartApp() {
      ipcRenderer.send('restart_app');
    }
  </script>

Ohh.... like this const ipc = electron.ipcMain ?

[nova wing]

const { ipcMain } = require('electron');

like you did with ipcRenderer

[honest olive]

Oh okay 😅

[wide cloak]

That would end in an error aswell, the way you set it up. @nova wing wrote what you need to do

[honest olive]

Okay thanks 👌
