@edwardbuck said in MM2 fails to start after upgrade from 2.29 to 2.33 on windows:
I have MagicMirror running on Windows10.
You certainly knew that, but Windows 10 support ends tomorrow. It’s about time to think about an alternative. See https://distrochooser.de/.

@edwardbuck yes, the doc says need 22.18.0 or higher

Thanks for your help. I upgraded to the latest node and it is running fine again. Sorry for not reading the error more closely, since it said the same thing you did. -

I’m running MM2 on an old Lenovo mini PC I got on ebay for half the price of a Raspberry PI. I considered installing Linux at the beginning, but now I am also running a MS Access database on there that won’t run under Win11, and a Logitech media server to keep my old Squeezebox playing. Regardless of support for Win10, as long as it keeps running, it is fine for me. -
