      first: thanks for answering so fast!

      node -v gives this:

      mirror@raspberrypi:~ $ node -v
      v20.16.0
      

      this is also the version I installed via n
      nevertheless, the wrong version is recognized when trying npm i

                ok, it thinks you are running npm as root… probably cause of some sudo somwhere…

                show results of

                whoami
                cd ~/MagicMirror
                ls -laF

                      I deleted node_modules directory as recommended and after that, this is what happened:

                      mirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run install-mm
                      
                      > magicmirror@2.28.0 install-mm
                      > npm install --no-audit --no-fund --no-update-notifier --only=prod --omit=dev
                      
                      npm error code EBADENGINE
                      npm error engine Unsupported engine
                      npm error engine Not compatible with your version of node/npm: magicmirror@2.28.0
                      npm error notsup Not compatible with your version of node/npm: magicmirror@2.28.0
                      npm error notsup Required: {"node":">=20"}
                      npm error notsup Actual:   {"npm":"10.8.2","node":"v18.18.0"}
                      npm error A complete log of this run can be found in: /home/mirror/.npm/_logs/2024-08-04T20_08_34_045Z-debug-0.log
                      

                      Now it says it’s running on node v18.18.0 instead of v18.17.1 but still not v20.16 which is installed. I don’t get it at all…

                        @Ix wild… never seen this.

                        SO, i would use nvm and n to remove all the added node versions…

                        get back to whatever before…
                        exit the shell window and open again

                        verify still on the prior nodejs

                        then use n version_number

                        sudo n 20.9
                        verify that is correct node -v
                        the close shell and open again,
                        verify node

                        then try the npm run install-mm again

                          well, now there’s another problem:

                          mirror@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo n 20.9
                               copying : node/20.9.0

                             installed :  (with npm 10.1.0)
                          mirror@raspberrypi:~ $ node -v
                          -bash: /usr/local/bin/node: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
                          

                          Sry for German: it’s “no such file or directory”

                          then try the npm run install-mm again

                              okay done all that, node is completely gone from my machine. I guess, reinstalling it would be the next step?
