I am trying to open a dialog box in my electron app but when I Try importing it in my app.js the error in the title shows up even thought 'enableRemoteModule' is set to true .

I am trying to open a dialog box in my electron app but when I Try importing it in my app.js the error in the title shows up even thought 'enableRemoteModule' is set to true .

app.js

const { dialog } = require("electron").remote;

    const CloseBookBtn = document.getElementById("CloseBookBtn")

  });

  // and load the index.html of the app.
  mainWindow.loadFile(path.join(__dirname, 'index.html'));

  // Open the DevTools.
  mainWindow.webContents.openDevTools();
};

// This method will be called when Electron has finished
// initialization and is ready to create browser windows.
// Some APIs can only be used after this event occurs.
app.on('ready', createWindow);

// Quit when all windows are closed, except on macOS. There, it's common
// for applications and their menu bar to stay active until the user quits
// explicitly with Cmd + Q.

  // dock icon is clicked and there are no other windows open.

    createWindow();
  }
});

// In this file you can include the rest of your app's specific main process
// code. You can also put them in separate files and import them here.

First install the remote module using

> npm install @electron/remote 

In the new versions of electron, you have to include remote as

const remote = require('@electron/remote');
const { dialog } = remote;

And in your index.js file add the following

const remoteMain = require('@electron/remote/main');
remoteMain.initialize();

Also, after creating the mainWindow object

remoteMain.enable(mainWindow.webContents)
