        @sdetweil You won’t get any argument out of me on that score.
        As I said, glad to help if I can just as long as you tell me what to do.

          @sdetweil I’m calling it a wrap for today but is there a way to make the developer tools to open that is not “open developer tools”?

          I did something yesterday and that launched but when you move the mouse around it is like it is behind the MM window. If it wasn’t doing that you could right click page and bring that up up.

          Reason I ask is I did see some Electron errors yesterday but I’ve seen them in past so I just ignored.

            @sdetweil Can you tell me how to easily capture/install the prior 2.20.0 version ether direct to the Pi I want to install MM on. I have two upcoming MM projects and while the one Pi is ready, it is going to be a simple build as far as MM’s go so will knock it out pretty quickly.

            I have successfully installed that earlier version twice but still way more hunting and pecking than is desireable. Plus it would be good to know more generally.

            Is sudo rm -r MagicMirror the best way to remove the problematic 2.23.0version? That is what I have been doing and since I have only just installed MM and no modules it seemed like that would do what I needed.

              @ankonaskiff17 you can rename it

              mv MagicMirror new_name

              later rm -rf MagicMirror to delete it
              I posted on the github issue on how to git clone a tag
              and where to find the tags
              each release is saved as a tag

                @sdetweil Thank you.

                I’ve piddled around with computers since THE computer was a Tandy Something Something I bought at a Radio Shack when they and hardware focused mom & pop computer stores were the only way to buy/build a NOT $7,000.00 IBM. There was an EGG Computer store as big as a Best Buy big box store in Charlotte, NC I used to go to and drool at all the hardware.

                Been several multi-year gaps in there for sure but I can always rely on computers to tax my brain. Just like this.

                I appreciate your help and patience.

                  @sdetweil I assume it is on you all to resolve MM’s conflict with the newest version of Electron?
                  I could see that going both ways. If new version of Electron broke EVERYONE’s application that uses Electron is different than if it only breaks one or two applications.

                    @sdetweil I went to the Github Issue to see what you wrote and I don’t see anything relating to to how to retrieve an older version of the repository. All my Googling I had found how each version has tag associated with it but I can’t find in the issue stream anywhere.

                      @ankonaskiff17 issue stream?

                      have to look at the changelog of the tag

                      you should be able to

                      git checkout -b branch_name tagname
                      

                      I think.

                      but if you used my script to install, then I strip out all the extra branches to save space

                      so you would have to use the clone approach

                        @ankonaskiff17 I did this

                        git clone -b v2.19.0 https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git mm2.19
                        

                        to get the v2.19.0 tag into the folder called mm2.19

                        if you don’t have the name at the end the folder will be MagicMirror
                        (and fail if there is one already)
