Please try this:
— exit the Steam app entirely
— uninstall Paradox Launcher v2 from the Windows «Apps and features» utility, if still present.
Delete the following folders if still present:
— C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/
— C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/
— C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Roaming/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
To see the AppData folder you’ll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.
— run steam.exe as the Windows Admin user
— run the game from the PLAY button in Steam
IF that doesn’t help, in this folder are some .log files:
C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
Please attach them here.

Did everything, it didn’t help. My game starts, then launcher updates. If you do not restart the launcher, it is possible to play. But after restarting the launcher this error appears. I delete the launcher again, restart the game and can play again. I can literally play until I restart the launcher after updating. Then again an error appears. This is extremely inconvenient and annoying, especially since I can’t return the money for the game.
p.s. I play on Steam, I don’t use mods. p.p.s. I did not understand what kind of log you need, so I added both. Hope this helps.

Try deleting C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/ and run the game from the Steam PLAY button again. The launcher will reinstall and update, if you then exit it and restart it you should be fine from then on.

Dude do you read what i write? smile. I did it all … it doesn’t help. I can simply delete the launcher from the steam folder and restart it and the game will start. Then the launcher is updated, and after the restart, the end. This JAWA error appears. Every time I have to reinstall the launcher to enter the game!

Similar issue here. The Launcher (and the game) worked fine when i started it yesterday. Today it totally fails. First i got
A JavaScript error occurred in the main process
Uncaught Exception:
Error: Cannot open ….launcher-v2-c-bindings.node:
Error: The specified module could not be found
Which was similar to what was seen here. So i followed the given instructions and deleted the C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/ — and now i get another error.

Tried following through all the hoops exactly as instructed in the post #2. But it did not resolve the issue.
What i did after removing the folders was that i started the launcher and allowed it to update. After that was completed I restarted the launcher. The launcher then started updating, again. And again i waited until the update was completed and then restarted the launcher. Got the exact same error as in the first try. Pointing to:
Uncaught Exception:
Error: Cannot open …AppDataLocalProgramsParadox Interactivelauncher-v2.2020.17resourcesapp.asardistmainlauncher-v2-c-bindings.node:
Error: The specified module could not be found
EDIT: Issue fixed with the instructions given in thread linked by ristosal

This is a problem with the new launcher 202017 version. Can you please download the latest C++ bundle and install it:
And run the x86 and x64 installers there.
Sorry about that!

It uses a different, canned, launcher installation which is not accessible to you. I have never seen it have the error in the original post here, is that what you are getting? Or something else?

Well it can’t be identical as the launcher versions in that error are not what you have.
In any case all you can do is uninstall the game and install it again; as I say MS prevent access to the game or launcher installation folders.
Many Hoi4 players have been facing an error while trying to start the game. And everybody getting the same error in the same game was getting a lot absurd, so that’s why finding the solution became a lot more important. They have reported that whenever they tried to begin the Heart of Irons 4 computer video game, an error message box popped up in front of them, saying “JavaScript Error”. And they confirmed that the other games were running smoothly but this pop up was becoming a nuisance only with the case of Hoi4. Now, this situation became a bit confusing, so let’s look at the reasons for this error.
Causes behind Hoi4 JavaScript Error
The reason for it happen can be due to several kinds of things, so a few possible reasons are given below:
- Maybe the program or your settings may have gotten corrupted.
- Die to some reason, the audio and video experience services of the quality Windows must have got deactivated.
- The users run the games by choosing on to the administrator permission.
How can we fix it?
Now in the article ahead, we will see together and try to find out the common methods in order to fix this problem, which may be helpful for many:
- Try reinstalling the game, so visit the folder of your game and just uninstall it, then re-install it again from the app store that you use.
- The data of the game can be deleted manually by opening the Windows explorer and then navigating yourself into the “This PC” option. So in order to get rid of this Hoi4 JavaScript Error, find all the game data, delete the entire folder just by right-clicking on the mouse.
- Run your Windows operating system without administrative privileges. Enter inside the ‘Properties’ option just by locating the game’s executable program, that chooses the ‘Compatibility’ tab, and now uncheck the box beside the ‘Run this Program as an Administrator’ option. At last, select ‘OK’.
- Now another way for fixing this problem is by automating the service of the quality Windows audio-video experience. So in the Run dialog box, you have a type- service.msc. Once you do that, a service window will be popped up, then just fetch the ‘Quality Windows audio-video experience’. In the end, select properties and choose the automatic option from the dropdown that is present just next to the ‘Startup Type’ button just so the Hoi4 Javascript Error can be fixed.

Появление кода этого программного сбоя свидетельствует о завершении рабочего сеанса голосового мессенджера. Это довольно распространенная ошибка, с которой часто сталкиваются пользователи операционной системы Windows. Появление фразы «JavaScript error occurred in the main process» можно расценивать в качестве оповещения о некорректной работе программного обеспечения или конкретных системных служб. Этот сбой можно устранить самостоятельно. Придерживайтесь экспертных рекомендаций и инструкций, чтобы сделать все правильно.
Скриншот ошибки JavaScript
Причины появления ошибки
В коде программного сбоя всегда зашифрована причина возникновения ошибки. В данном случае оповещение свидетельствует о некорректной работе определенных сценариев JavaScript. Почему ошибка появляется именно при работе с Discord? Это обусловлено тем, что мессенджер создан на основе языка программирования Java.
Появление сбоя может также стать следствием повреждения системных файлов софта. Возможно, важные файлы были случайно удалены пользователем или заблокированы антивирусом, поэтому мессенджер Discord не работает. Практика показывает, что зачастую появление ошибки связано с отсутствием файла под названием «discord_voice». Впрочем, есть и другие причины:
- мессенджер конфликтует с программным обеспечением, которое было установлено на ноутбук или ПК;
- деинсталляция прежней версии Discord была выполнена некорректно. Остатки некоторых файлов создают проблемы в работе;
- не установлены компоненты операционной системы Windows последней версии, нужно включить автоматическую инсталляцию обновлений;
- некорректная работа мессенджера спровоцирована вирусами или шпионским ПО.
Ошибка работы приложения Дискорд
Чтобы точно определить причину, нужно провести тщательную диагностику.
Решение проблемы
Для устранения ошибки, откройте корневую директорию мессенджера. Найдите директории с названием «AppData» и «AppDataLocal». Из-за стандартных настроек ОС они могут быть недоступны для просмотра. Чтобы получить доступ к данным папкам, сделайте следующее:
- Зайдите в меню «Пуск» или воспользуйтесь комбинацией горячих клавиш «Win+R».
- Нажмите на «Выполнить».
Окно «Выполнить»
- В появившемся окошке следует вписать команды «%localappdata%» и «%appdata%», которые откроют доступ к скрытым директориям.
- Удалите абсолютно все файлы в этих папках, в названии которых встречается «Discord».
- Из мессенджера также необходимо выйти. Самый действенный способ – принудительно отключить все процессы через «Диспетчер задач».
- Удалите мессенджер, а потом установите программу заново.
Этих действий достаточно для решения проблемы и восстановления корректной работы программного обеспечения.
Альтернативные варианты устранения ошибки
Ранее было отмечено, что стать катализатором появления программного сбоя способны также стать вирусы. Для исключения этой вероятности, проверьте корневую директорию мессенджера Discord. Сначала закройте данную программу через «Диспетчер задач», а уже потом запускайте антивирус. Если зараженные файлы были обнаружены, удалите их, а потом повторно запустите голосовой чат. Во избежание появления дополнительных сбоев, всегда запускайте мессенджер от имени администратора.
Установите на PC или лэптоп актуальную версию ОС Windows, на которую регулярно выходят официальные обновления Microsoft. Сегодня разработчики американской компании исправно обновляют только восьмерку и десятку. Поэтому выберите одну из этих операционок. Голосовой чат Discord – это относительно новое программное обеспечение, использующее современные службы и компоненты. Старые версии операционной системы не поддерживают их, поэтому возникают всевозможные сбои и ошибки.
Проблемы с запуском Skype
У некоторых пользователей ошибка «Javascript error occurred in the main process» возникает при запуске программы Skype. Появление сбоя обусловлено тем, что операционная система пытается выполнить автозагрузку приложения, то есть открыть программу сразу после включения ноутбука или компьютера.
Автоматический запуск Skype предусматривает дополнительное взаимодействие с Javascript, что неудивительно, ведь рассматриваемая программа написана именно на этом языке программирования. В коде сбоя указан проблемный сценарий, который следует устранить для восстановления корректной работы системы.
Довольно часто советы по устранению ошибки сводятся к обновлению Java и сбросу пользовательских настроек браузера Internet Explorer. Однако все эти действия не помогут избавиться от сбоя. Решение проблемы лежит на поверхности. Запустите Skype и перейдите в раздел настроек. На вкладке общие вы найдете команду «Запускать Скайп автоматически». Отключите эту функцию.
Отключение автозагрузки в Скайпе
Ошибка исчезнет, но программа не будет включаться при запуске компьютера. Если автозагрузку Скайпа нужно сохранить, тогда зайдите в меню «Пуск». Перенесите иконку Skype в директорию Автозагрузка. Сделать это можно просто перетянув ярлык в нужную папку.
Папка «Автозагрузка»
Заключение
Теперь вы знаете, как исправить ошибку «JavaScript error occurred in the main process» и почему этот программный сбой появляется. В целях профилактики старайтесь своевременно обновлять операционную систему, а также весь софт. Это позволит избежать возникновения различных ошибок.
