Forwarding this issue from here : electron/electron#44416

Just encountered the same issue.

I was updating node_mods and seemed to get the same:
npm warn deprecated boolean@3.2.0: Package no longer supported. Contact Support at https://www.npmjs.com/support for more info.

Same issue here.

Reposting from the electron/electron issue, but this is the upstream problem: gajus/global-agent#70

[MagicalEarner]

use npm install electron@latest

[erickzhao]

use npm install electron@latest

That won't work. The global-agent package has not been patched to remove usage of the boolean package yet as per the upstream issue.

Same issue here.

Installing version 33.3.0 worked for me.

npm i electron@33.3.0

Any Solution?

I had this same issue when I try to create an electron folder myself, but when I used the Electron quick start on Github it no longer gave me the warning that the package wasn't supported. Very odd but that's what worked for me.

Installing a new version of electron won't solve the issue according to this project's lockfile. Perhaps npm just isn't showing the warning on every single install?
