      Yes Windows 10, I have looked at the rest of the page. If there is something I am supposed to see can you point it out? I continue to get this: ‘DISPLAY’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
      After running the npm start command.
      Thanks

            you always have to be in the MagicMirror folder when issuing npm start
            or other commands for MagicMirror

            so,
            cd MagicMirror
            then
            npm start
