i followed these steps mentioned by you in one of the problems
git clone https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start
cd electron-quick-start
npm install
npm start

electron-quick-start@1.0.0 start PATH\electron-quick-start
electron .

the window comes Hello World
but when i reboot the system it says the same error

If you are running on a Pi then you have Raspbian installed so you have a file browser.
go to the MagicMirror folder and delete the node_modules directory and try reinstalling the mirror in a terminal window …

In the terminal window in the MagicMirror folder type:

npm install

Make sure you have the API key and the Location and Location ID in the config.js file.

@undergroundauth - I don’t know whether the problem is already solved or not. Anyway, since noone mentioned it explicitly, here a note: you should copy/rename config.js.sample to config.js at first since changes to config.js.sample are completely ignored. Only the file config.js is used and so, your changes should only go there.

This issue was solved.
