Dear @nonvieri, @dmalessio and @zachlai,
It works for me on linux (WSL) and I was getting the same error untill I edited/configured the settings in settings.json file correctly.
More specifically, as is said in Readme file, you should configure the line:
"tesseract_path": "C:\\program Files\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe", // The path for tesseract engine if not available via environment variables.
For me on linux it was to change
"C:\\program Files\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe" to "/usr/bin/tesseract" since I installed tesseract software in that location.
For you please try to change tesseract path from:
"C:\\program Files\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe"
to:
"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe"
Hope, it helps
