sam whatever you told me to not which step I got it all working. Only issue now is two modules are not centered correctly even when using top_center…how or if you can use css for that?

maybe… depends on the module

@sdetweil any ideas on this one just showed up…It asked me that npm needed major update now it doesn’t work
C:\Users\Svale\MagicMirror>npm start > magicmirror@2.18.0 start > ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js '.' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. C:\Users\Svale\MagicMirror> -
@swvalenti said in Complete Walkthrough - Install MagicMirror on a PC - Windows 7/10:
./node_modules
yes, you cannot have the ./ in front… windows doesn’t understand that …
read the instructions again
-
@swvalenti you shouldn’t update things unless u know why you are doing it…
we test with certain runtimes and release every 3 months

remove the display and the leading
"start":"node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js", -
@sdetweil said in Complete Walkthrough - Install MagicMirror on a PC - Windows 7/10:
“start”:“node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js”,

@swvalenti said in Complete Walkthrough - Install MagicMirror on a PC - Windows 7/10:
electron js\electron.js
u still have it wrong
“node_modules/.bin/electron electron.js”
electron is not in the path, so you have to give it the path to the executable
once again different versions of node and npm require slightly different solutions…
this is not an MM problem… they keep messing it up (in my opinion) -
@sdetweil oh well I give up I tried all the steps, thanks for all the help and patience
