      You shouldn’t have to run sudo to launch the mirror. The installation guide states, “DO NOT INSTALL MagicMirror² as the root user! Always do it as the regular, non privileged pi user.”

      With that being said, is your console reporting any errors? cd into your MagicMirror directory and run npm start dev and see what you get there

        Oh, the sudo part might be infact my bad.

        Here is the paste bin of console errors

          You have more than a few problems going on there. Did you install your dependencies? I would try that first. Did you have the mirror running at all and it later failed when you added something? Or have you not got it to run at all?

          Personally, if installing the dependencies is not the problem, I would do a whole new installation manually, installing the latest node and npm first, then installing the dependencies, then try to running the mirror with the defaults before trying to edit anything.

            You were totally right about administrative rights @Mykle1, I have done it from beggining and it works like a charm.
