                @La7dan if you use one of the installer scripts… listed on the MM github page, or mine listed here in the forums (see here https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10171/anyone-want-to-try-updated-installer

                it will setup pm2, and turn off the screensaver…as part of the mm install…

                  @geo where? its up to you…
                  copy it to the same folder as config.js.saved
                  or to another folder
                  or to a server disk,
                  or to a drop box , or google drive

                  depends on how ‘safe’ you want to be…

                  its just a copy command

                  cp config.js config.js.save

                            @geo has it always not been opening on boot?

                            use this script to fix that
                            see here
                            https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10907/new-script-to-install-fix-pm2-config-for-start-on-boot

                            if the mm won’t start at all, that is a different problem

                            new on uk… which news source do you want? open their page, and scroll down to the bottom… thy usually list rss feeds

                                    @La7dan use the search feature on your favorite news site… here from the bbc, to find an rss feed to put into the news config

                                          @geo open a terminal window
                                          Then do

                                          cd ~/MagicMirror/config
                                          cp config.js config.js.save
                                          

                                          That saves your current config.js to another file
