                @geo no… just missing the config file…
                select the text in my post above, right click mouse, select copy,
                then open an editor on the file and right click mouse paste

                i use ssh and BitVise ssh client so I can access and edit files thru my windows machine

                    @geo nano is a text editor

                    you can also do

                    cp config.js.sample config.js
                    

                    to copy the initial

                          @geo cut/paste is the generic term for the operations of marking the source, and transferring it to the destination

                          copy is the non destructive form of cut

                                    I will make it works dont worry!
                                    First reinstall:
                                    1- Run this command:
                                    sudo rm -R MagicMirror
                                    (that will rmove the Magic mirror from your system.
                                    2- Run this command:
                                    bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh)”
                                    to install the new MagicMirror again.

                                    end: dont copy the line above ( you can fin the file in config dirctory under the name of config.js.sample. Just save it as config.js without sample)

                                    4- start your Magic Mirror
                                    First: cd MagicMirror
                                    (to navigate to the Magic Mirror dirctory)
                                    second run : npm start
                                    Check if it works!

                                    I will be helping you step by step even if you wants to add some modules.

                                    Good luck!!!

                                            Cannot express this enough… if you have a working config make a copy of it before you make changes that way you can either
                                            a. compare the working with the non-working config
                                            or
                                            b. switch back to the working config.
