ffmpeg file without the exe extension on window

[hunglsxx]

ffmpeg-static version

5.2.0

Node.js version

v16.14.2

operating system and/or environment

Window

What happened?

Hello, I'm using ffmpeg-static when building Electron with a Windows target. However, the downloaded ffmpeg build doesn't have the .exe extension, while the path provided by ffmpeg-static includes the .exe extension. This causes my application to be unable to execute ffmpeg.

import ffmpegStaticPath from 'ffmpeg-static';
console.log(ffmpegStaticPath); // This line prints something like: node_modules/ffmpeg-static/ffmpeg.exe. However, in reality, the ffmpeg file is located at node_modules/ffmpeg-static/ffmpeg (without the exe extension).

Can you help me?

I assume this is under the Windows cross-platform environment, too?

Refer to #35 for more background info on how ffmpeg-static is supposed to support Electron cross-platform building.
