Answer 1

it's recommended to use returned path from dialog.showSaveDialog to get filepath in new versions of electron: (which is result.filePath in the below code)

    filename = dialog.showSaveDialog({}
    ).then(result => {
      filename = result.filePath;
      if (filename === undefined) {
        alert('the user clicked the btn but didn\'t created a file');
        return;
      }
      fs.writeFile(filename, content, (err) => {
        if (err) {
          alert('an error ocurred with file creation ' + err.message);
          return
        }
        alert('WE CREATED YOUR FILE SUCCESFULLY');
      })
      alert('we End');
    }).catch(err => {
      alert(err)
    })
