I scoured the forum and internet but can’t find anything on nunchucks I am guessing that is the issue.

@swvalenti did u run the extra steps?? (because the postinstall linux syntax fails on windows)

cd vendor
npm install
cd ..
cd fonts 
npm install
cd ..

now u can start

@swvalenti black screen

see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later

@sdetweil Hey Sam it’s not a black screen just modules show as undefined…like weather, news and components all other modules show

[sdetweil]

@swvalenti where did u install the extra modules?

open a Windows cmd.exe session and do all the commands there…
