      Sam, you’re a genius!

      That’s fixed it.
      This will only happen again in the not too distant future I’m sure, so would I be better off installing a newer OS?
      And then how do I recreate my MM on said new OS?

      I’m going to logoff for now, thanks again for your help today.
      More tomorrow I’m sure.
      Kind regards,
      Richard.

        copy your MagicMirror folder to save it somewhere
        u can zip it to to save space

        install buster on your sd card
        run the installer to get things setup
        restore you MM zip file
        erase the node_modules folder
        npm install (this should put on the newer electron)
        npm start

          Old MM FTPd to NAS.
          Installing new OS now, on a different SD card so I can go back if absolutely necessary.
          My plan is to build a new MM as the old one had a lot of clutter - old unused modules etc.
          Taking the opportunity for a fresh start. I’ll let you know how it goes…

            All done.
            MM back just as it was with custom CSS, but this time using only the modules installed that I actually need.
            MM accessible from any LAN attached device as I don’t have it setup as a mirror anywhere.
            The terminal window is showing a constatnt log of what’s happening. Is that correct - I don’t remember it from MM_OLD?

            And will the update notification module do anything now, or do I need to do anything?

                  I copied my config.js into the new install, and deleted all the old commented-out module junk I was no longer using.
                  Added the 'loglevel: [… ’ line, doesn’t yet seem to have made any difference. Reboot required perhaps?

                  2.14? Package.Json = “version” : “2.14.0”

                  Electron is 8.5

                  pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $ grep version node_modules/electron/package.json
                    "version": "8.5.5"
                  pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $
