@beachjosh77 yes? you have to do all the install steps again
manually npm install in fonts and vendors and change package.json.
see the doc

@beachjosh77 also, there is a bug, for windows , so you have to get the next version develop branch

@sdetweil Thank you for replying,
I followed your instructions and ran:cd ~/MagicMirror git checkout develop git pull npm install
but I still get
npm ERR! code EJSONPARSE npm ERR! path C:\Users\CompName\MagicMirror/package.json npm ERR! JSON.parse Unexpected token "." (0x2E) in JSON at position 181 while parsing near "...ts\": {\r\n\t\t\"start\": ./node_modules/.bin/..." npm ERR! JSON.parse Failed to parse JSON data. npm ERR!

@beachjosh77 yes, you STILL have to follow the special windows instructions
package.json is updated and replaced every release…

@sdetweil I forgot to mention, I also ran npm install in fonts and vendors and changed package.json to remove the display again
-
@beachjosh77 said in MM on Windows - Updated now get black screen:
EJSONPARSE
maybe you edited, but you messed it up
-
@sdetweil That worked, thank you!
