Description

I used "npm install electron-prebuilt -g" command to install electron but when trying to run
my app using "npm start" it generated an error. When I go back to electron-prebuilt version 0.36.10 everything works okay. My simple app has dependency on "glob" and "slash" packages. I am not sure what is causing the error. npm-debug.log file is attached.

Research direction

Start by reading the attached npm-debug.txt and reproducing the failure with electron-prebuilt 0.37.0 on Windows 7 x64 using the reported npm install and npm start commands. Compare that result with version 0.36.10; the issue is done when the reported app starts successfully with 0.37.0 on the affected platform.
