Please make sure that you use the documents that match your Electron version. The version number should be a part of the page URL. If it's not, you are probably using the documentation of a development branch which may contain API changes that are not compatible with your Electron version. To view older versions of the documentation, you can [browse by tag](https://github.com/electron/electron/tree/v1.4.0) on GitHub by opening the "Switch branches/tags" dropdown and selecting the tag that matches your version. ## FAQ There are questions that are asked quite often.
