      this folder does not exist in the latest release

      and if u deleted the node_modules folder (per the prior instructions) it should not exist on your system either

      do

      grep version ~/MagicMirror/package.json

                I saved all the modules I had installed…
                What else for a backup?
                What about a clean reinstallation?
                How can I delete everything? It’s enough if I delete the MagicMirror folder?

                    @zolabus Hi all after all I found a couple of modules causing the issue…
                    I started from a standard config file and added the modules one by one.
                    Now I have my magic mirror back
                    Thanks
