      @jani-karna It seems like the install of dependencies in the wrong directory removed a file, try the following in the terminal:

      cd ~/MagicMirror
      git checkout modules/node_modules/node_helper/index.js
      

      After that restart your mirror.

      Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

            Thank you so much @sdetweil and @strawberry-3-141 , that got my MM up and running again. However, I still get a bunch of “No helper found for module…” for few of them. I don’t know if this is normal.

              @jani-karna yes that is normal, if a module doesn’t have the optional file node_helper.js you will see it in the logs
