Description
This library found and tried to use an ancient version of node-webkit (0.10.5) that it found in an old project *on my external drive*. This resulted in broken tests:
The `mdfind` in the macos file should probably be limited with `--onlyin`.

Research direction
Locate the macOS file that invokes `mdfind` and inspect how it searches for nw.js or node-webkit installations. Limit the search to the intended location rather than external drives, then run the existing tests that currently fail when the old external-drive installation is selected.
