settings not setting on mac

[CaiIsProgrammer]

I don't see any errors but doesn't seem electron settings aren't saving because when I close and reopen my application on mac the saved settings are now reset.

my getting and setting functions

       export const setUser = async (user) => {
          await settings.set("SYQELUser", user.token);
              return true;
            };
            export const getToken = async () => {
              
        export  const user = await settings.get("SYQELUser");
              console.log(user);
            if (user) {
              try {
                  return user;
              } catch (e) {
                  return false;
              }
            }
              return false;
            };

same

I figured out what is happening (at least in my case)

settings returns "/Users/a/Library/Application Support/Electron/settings.json" as currently settings location. However, I could found the settings.json on the same path as electron.app.getPath('userData') folder.

Could you update the library to use electron.app.getPath('userData') as default please?
