        @sdetweil is not working

        
        	"scripts": {
        		"start": "node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js",
        		"start:dev": "DISPLAY=\"${DISPLAY:=:0}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js dev",
        

        same errors

        C:\Users\gizmo\MagicMirror>npm start
        
        > magicmirror@2.15.0 start
        > node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

                  @airart i don’t understand, I installed on windows 10 without trouble… but it was npm v6.

                  I just installed and used npm 7.14…

                  I had to use the full path to electron

                  here is my package.json start line

                  "start": "/Users/sdetw/MagicMirror/node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js",
                  

                  this is due to a change in npm… my prior instance will not start now without the full path

                    this is because npm 7.14 is trying to launch from the MagicMirror folder instead of the module folder…

                        @airart yes,

                        npm install -g npm@6.14.0

                        after this completes

                        cd MagicMirror
                        rd /s/q node_modules
                        npm install
