To create a linux installer I had to change the application package.json "author":"blah" to "author":{
"name":"blah", "email": "blah@blah.com"}. This had a side effect in the windows installer where the authors field (Publisher in the add/remove programs) to read [Object object].
Adding the owners field in the win section of the development package.json fixes the problem.
Having in mind that the project uses electronjs/windows-installer I filed a PR there that fixes the problem (it was just a typo https://github.com/electronjs/windows-installer/pull/16/files).
And then it hit me.
While the docs state that electron-packager and https://github.com/electronjs/windows-installer are used under the hood, the truth is that some temporary-forks are actually being used.
I really don't see any reason (nor have the time to do so) to create PRs on temporary forks.
For the typo mentioned I might have done it but I don't feel like altering the following code found in electron-winstaller-temp-fork/index.js metadata.authors = (ref4 = (ref5 = (ref6 = metadata.author) != null ? ref6.name : void 0) != null ? ref5 : metadata.author) != null ? ref4 : '';
Maybe somebody else does....
