@pat59 put in code block like always

paste text with empty line above and below
select text just pasted
hit the button </> above the messge editor

you cannot ‘attach’ files… only pictures…

there shouldn’t be that much in the paste output anyhow

neither of those files is very big

@pat59 weird
in the module folder do

git reset  --hard HEAD

this will restore all changed files back to the repo level

then your module update process should work

[pat59]

always the update message that appears

[sdetweil]

@pat59 no, in the folder of the module you are having trouble updating

MMM-RemoteControl

as you are having trouble with one module, all the commands would be relative to that module’s folder… right??

[pat59]

Sorry I don’t understand your question I’m a newbie

[pat59]

I just noticed that I forgot to put Remote control in the module folder. I did the manipulation again, then did a git pull again and npm install, that’s it, it’s back to normal, no more update messages, a big thank you to you for your help. how can I thank you do you have a kitty to make a donation cordially
