Cannot find module 'stream/promises' - won't start

PhotoStructure for Node
Using alpha branch

Problem: Won’t start
Error: Cannot find module ‘stream/promises’

I suspect you have an old version of Node–we need version 16 or later now.

Okay, have upgraded, fixed it. Thanks!

Thanks to @awojtas for reporting this issue. Apologies for the delayed follow-up.

For anyone finding this thread: PhotoStructure v2026.2 now requires Node.js 22.3 or later, which includes stream/promises natively. If you see this error, upgrade your Node.js installation.

The Node.js version requirements are documented in the install guide: PhotoStructure for Node | PhotoStructure
