      Apologies I don’t speak the language so I don’t understand it unfortunately but I did a capital R and got the following:

      chown: invalid option – ‘r’
      Try ‘chown --help’ for more information.

            @xxLulaBelle we don’t care about the package-lock.json file

            but the package.json maybe

            do

            git diff package.json
            

            to see what was changed.

            my update script, from here, https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts, might have helped.

                      @xxLulaBelle usually when I have this issue i run the following the the MagicMirror folder:

                      git reset --hard
                      then
                      git pull && npm install
                      That works for me and I am able to update

                          @mumblebaj that works, but. he made a change. let’s not lose this if it’s important.

                          use my script anyhow. solves lots of other problems with modules too
