           /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/ical
          

          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
