Use any image hosting provider such as imgur or epvpimg and post it between the img tags:

Code:

[img][/img]

Just make sure your link ends with the extension (png, jpg, .gif etc.) and as for your error, you may want to give more info about what were you wallet were you using, the OS etc.

It's a screen shot from my Android  cellphone and I tried using Imgur to upload it on here. I'm not sure if it's a png or not

You can check the file format by opening the details of  your screenshot(usually they are in .png or .jpg format), If you are using Imgur to upload your image you don't need to check the image format because the direct link of Imgur image has the image file extension at the end. You just need to copy the direct link from Imgur and paste it here to view it on your post.
e.g  

Code:

[img]http://direct link of your image from imgur[/img]

Have you checked the log?

Code:

C:\Users\rhedr\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2018-03-20T04_09_11_070Z-debug.log

Does it have more detailed error message or that contains only the same information as the screenshot?

I'm also not an expert but these lines seems suspicious for me:

7 verbose argv "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe" "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node_modules\\npm\\bin\\npm-cli.js" "run" "setup"

There should not be double \\, usually it have to be just a single backslash like \

I'm not sure that this is the problem but you can give it a try to check the script if you can modify it to single backslash, it can't be worse, since it's not working at the moment.

The other reason why there are dobule backslashes in the program lines that this is a special scripting language I don't know, in this case I have no idea about the problem...

An '\' is used as an escape character. It is used to include special characters (like TAB, new line, etc..) into a string.
To include a backslash (\) you have to put the escape character in front of it. Therefore the '\\'.
Without the escape char the '\n' in the first line would have been understood as 'new line'.

Unfortunately i don't know what caused OP's problem. But i'm pretty sure it is not because of the double backslash.


OP, do you have the 'pack-age-electron' script in the right directory?

Thanks for the clarification, it's clear now, how to use the \\
