      My MagicMirror running on Windows 10 works great. I start a bash command window, type in ‘npm start’ and it’s running.

      How do I create a batch/cmd file to start MagicMirror automatically each time Windows starts?

        you can try this maybe this works for you but debends on your system/ environment

        set internet explorer default page to “http://localhost:8080”

        use windows key + r (run command)
        type “shell:startup” (open a windows explorer)
        create here a file with filetype *.bat (e.g. StartMagicMirror.bat)
        type:

        @echo off
        START /max iexplore.exe
        
        cd C:\Users\MyUser\MagicMirror\
        node serveronly
        

        save an close and doubble click on the file, Internet Explorer should open and magic mirror should start.
        Now you can restart an test
