Need some help installing on Win10

@CheapDad usually this is a bad position string

Sam, my apologies but I have no idea what this means. A google search didn’t reveal anything that appeared to be on point either.

@CheapDad

   {
        module: ",,,,,,",
        position: "xxx_yyy",   <----- that thing  (the 'position' string

or mis-spelling ‘position’

@sdetweil Thank you! Two other questions:

1. I assume that since this latest black screen occurred after I used my edited config.js, that’s where I need to look for the error. Correct?

2. Once that correction is made, should I then see the MM running in a window? I ask because I had received a black screen previously using the sample config.js

[sdetweil]

@CheapDad you did the two extra steps to install in fonts and vendor , right?

the sample config should work unchanged
it should be the same as on linux… full screen…

[CheapDad]

@sdetweil I didn’t do the extra steps. I was hoping to get the confirmation that I needed a working config.js that the walkthrough speaks about. I’ll run those extra steps.
