@christlee1989 the fix is present in the next release (1.6.0) at the end of the month: eclipse-theia/theia#8454.
For the moment, you can call your own script to rebuild the native electron dependencies to include drivelist instead of the following:

https://github.com/eclipse-theia/theia-example/blob/8ddf8cd2a84acd1e0f5de2a7a65e342f91631a11/package.json#L79

I tried myself and it worked correctly (the application successfully started):

1. clone the repository
2. update all the theia dependencies to next instead of ^1.5.0 in the package.json
3. perform yarn
4. perform yarn start

@vince-fugnitto why i still error :(

[christlee1989]

@vince-fugnitto my versions

[vince-fugnitto]

@christlee1989 you can perform a git clean -ffdx before you build, it's likely your yarn.lock is pinning the version of the theia extensions to a prior version? You can double check by verifying the version of @theia extension under node_modules.

For example, my @theia/core package.json version:

  "name": "@theia/core",
  "version": "1.6.0-next.d45b301c",

[christlee1989]

@vince-fugnitto I removed yarn.lock before yarn

@vince-fugnitto exactly the same

[christlee1989]

@vince-fugnitto I try the https://github.com/theia-ide/theia-trace-extension , this no error, can you find some difference?

@vince-fugnitto I try the https://github.com/theia-ide/theia-trace-extension , this no error, can you find some difference?

The theia-trace-extension includes a yarn.lock file which pins the @theia dependencies to 1.4.0.
What exactly is your use-case, are you looking for an example on how to build your own application?

Update: you can try the following repository if you like (I made the changes I expressed earlier and hopefully it's clearer): https://github.com/vince-fugnitto/theia-next. The changes work well for me, I am able to build and start using:

yarn 
yarn start
