      @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! JSON.parse Note: package.json must be actual JSON, not just JavaScript.

        @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
