      Sorry about this dumb question but, how would I stop the magic mirror app? I have tried pressing ctrl + w and that only does some sort of refreshing thing to the app.

      Would anyone be able to help me with this?
      If you need more information let me know.

      Thanks,
      Adam

        Press the Alt key. This drops down a menu at the top. You won’t see your mouse cursor until you move it into the menu bar. The File menu allows you to Quit the mirror. Check the other menus for other options

            You’re running PM2? That would relaunch the mirror. Instead of Quitting the mirror, you can Minimize it via one of the other menus. Then type pm2 stop mm in your terminal. That will stop the mirror from relaunching

                  when i do
                  pm2 start mm
                  it says: script not found
                  I should already have a script though as it worked on startup, where would that script be if I have it already?

                    @Mykle1 ok So I found that my mm.sh was in the installers folder and that works now but when I do pm2 start mm I get an error on run-start.
                    MM opens up and everything but is there a reason why I get an error for that?
                    Thanks,

                      If you shut your Pi down and turn it back on, does the mirror launch automatically?

                          Then I believe you may not have saved the state of PM2 on installation.
