When making an installer package using windows squirrel via electron forge, the installer fails when a user tries to install the electron application on their windows device. The only log that is found is in the app data / local / electron app folder in the file debug.log and it leaves just a single error which is very ambiguous: `FATAL:v8_initializer.cc(414)] Error loading V8 startup snapshot file`

MDL is a dependency of Firebase’s firebaseui package which is why I need to use this instead of the newer Material Components for the web. Unless it is supposed to be backwards compatible and would work in place of MDL?
