Please help, I have been trying to get my mirror fixed after my last upgrade. I have searched this site and others areas but cannot find the solution. Can anyone help make my mirror come back to life? This is the error messages are get when trying to start my mirror. Sorry in advance if this is easy for someone to fix. pi@raspberrypi:~/Documents/MagicMirrorJan2021 $ npm start npm ERR! Linux 5.10.63-v7+ npm ERR! argv “/usr/local/bin/node” “/usr/local/bin/npm” “start” npm ERR! node v6.11.0 npm ERR! npm v3.10.10 npm ERR! file /home/pi/Documents/MagicMirrorJan2021/package.json npm ERR! code EJSONPARSE npm ERR!

@sdetweil I managed to update it finally. Now I just have a black screen to fix to show my modules, so it feels close 😁

@richardh151 said in Cannot restart my mirror for months : Unexpected token ‘/’ at 7:41 Check your package.json file. Theres something wrong, probably at line 7.
