      so i followed these instructions

      "start": "DISPLAY=\"${DISPLAY:=:0}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js",
      "start:dev": "DISPLAY=\"${DISPLAY:=:0}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js dev",
      

      and replace it with

      "start": ".\\node_modules\\.bin\\electron js\\electron.js",
      "start:dev": ".\\node_modules\\.bin\\electron js\\electron.js dev",
      

      but it still goes back to
      C:\magicmirror>
      and does nothing.

              just finished the install using cmd

              • made sure to install the fonts and vendor parts
              • as well as change the package.json file and then did run start.

              but it still did the same thing as before.

                  @JackHammer325 no .\ in front

                  the doc is wrong. windows doesn’t like . for current directory

                    this is what i have in my package.json file. I removed the “.” like you recommended.
                    JSON package.jpg

                    now i get “the system cannot find the path specified”

                    C:\MagicMirror>npm start
                    
                    > magicmirror@2.26.0 start
                    > \node_modules\.bin\electron js\electron.js
                    
                    The system cannot find the path specified.
                    
                    C:\MagicMirror>

                      @JackHammer325 you only removed the dot I said no .\

                      so remove the slashes too

                      "node_modules\\.bin\\....",

                        sorry guess i didn’t realize.
                        I’ve done that and it looks like it’s trying to start but then just goes back to this.

                        C:\MagicMirror>npm start
                        
                        > magicmirror@2.26.0 start
                        > node_modules\.bin\electron js\electron.js                 → sits here for about 8-10 seconds
                                                                                                                                                                           then does that
                                                                                                                                                                                           ↓
                        C:\MagicMirror>
