This is why I like electron applications at times. Bought a php helper application that "upgraded" to a major version, doubled the price and had an annoying popup and just plain started behaving wonky. Spent several minutes with the asar file, unpacked everything, stripped all the api calls and swapped a few binaries with newer versions, repackaged and good as new.
