Ping @alexhenrie: I think the Arch repo can be updated to match the updates :)

@hacdias Well, I pushed the new release to the AUR, but "Launch on startup" appears to be totally broken now. ~/.config/autostart/ipfs-desktop.desktop simply isn't created anymore.

@alexhenrie can you check if it might have been caused by this commit: 4971793? 'Cause I didn't change anything else

[alexhenrie]

@hacdias Yes, removing the returns restores the functionality.

Ok, will fix asap.

@lidel should've used your idea to test if it was macOS or Windows! Usually, this Electron functions for specific OSes simply don't exist on others...
