Bug Description

Hello, good morning!

I am trying to build RustDesk on macOS, but I am facing issues...

When I run cargo run, I receive the following log:

[2023-12-26T14:43:37Z INFO librustdesk::core_main] main start args:[]
WARNING:DOM: failed to load "/Users/iosi/Documents/rustdesk/vcpkg/src/ui/index.html" file, error=2
[sciter] warning! null element for HANDLE_BEHAVIOR_EVENT:DOCUMENT_CLOSE_REQUEST
[sciter] warning! null element for HANDLE_BEHAVIOR_EVENT:DOCUMENT_CLOSE_REQUEST

It opens RustDesk with an empty window, and it's not possible to use the application. It works fine on Linux.

How to Reproduce

Run the standard RustDesk build for Mac, just change the git clone repository to the repository of my project.

cd
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg
cd vcpkg
git checkout 2023.04.15
./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
brew install nasm yasm
./vcpkg install libvpx libyuv opus aom
git clone https://github.com/ViniciusAndradex/rustdesk
cd rustdesk
export VCPKG_ROOT=$HOME/vcpkg
wget https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-sdk/raw/master/bin.osx/libsciter.dylib
cargo run

Expected Behavior

Open RustDesk normally.
