Expected Behavior

const robotjs = require("robotjs");

export const captureScreenshot = (
  x: number,
  y: number,
  width: number,
  height: number
) => {
  console.log({ x, y, width, height });
  const capture = robotjs.screen.capture(x, y, width, height); // HERE

  return capture.image;
};

It should return the correct image buffer.

Actual Behavior

Application closes with the following error:

robotjs is not compatible with Electron 21+, this needs to be fixed in robotjs.
