    - You can always press <kbd>Ctrl+R</kbd> (<kbd>Cmd+R</kbd>) inside the new window to reload and see your new changes. It's faster than <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+P</kbd> and `Reload Window`.
    - You might want to add the flags `--user-data-dir ./.tmp/user-data --extensions-dir ./.tmp/extensions` to the above run command, which lets you delete the `.tmp` folder to reset any IDE changes you made when testing.
 	- You can kill any of the build scripts by pressing `Ctrl+D` in VSCode terminal. If you press `Ctrl+C` the script will close but will keep running in the background (to open all background scripts, just re-build).

 - Make sure you followed the prerequisite steps above.
 - Make sure you have Node version `20.18.2` (the version in `.nvmrc`)!
+- Make sure that the path to your Void folder does not have any spaces in it.
 - If you get `"TypeError: Failed to fetch dynamically imported module"`, make sure all imports end with `.js`.
 - If you get an error with React, try running `NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=8192" npm run buildreact`.
 - If you see missing styles, wait a few seconds and then reload.
