    @sdetweil That’s what I thought. Pity :(
    But you learn from the mistakes, even if this is unattractive.

    Thank you for your answer

      @CyruS1337 - The Magic Mirror upgrade process is designed to avoid overwriting your customized configuration settings. In practice, that means that config.js and custom.css files are not overwritten with an update. Any changes you make to those files should persist from one major update to the next. That said… Jesus saves. And he backs up on removable media.

      Your compliments module external file should still be in the operating system. You just need to find it and configure the config file to point to it.

          @bhepler Let’s say this file still exists somewhere. Where should I start looking?

              Thank you for your renewed help. You are just great.

              I could solve my problem otherwise. I as a clever fox, downloaded the file 2 weeks ago on my computer. So I still had all the compliments and could overwrite the file with the current file 😊

              I still have a question for you, but you can certainly help me with this. The question does not fit in here, but I’ll put it to you anyway. Before the hard reset, I changed the costum.css so that the modules were really in each corner of the monitors. So the display on the monitor optimally exploited before the module disappeared behind the edge of the monitor. Unfortunately I do not know the attitude anymore.
