        Now trying to start mm I got black screen only.
        I can’t remember where I saw but I think MichMich advice to go in C:\MagicMirror\vendor and run again npm install, I have done that and it worked.
        Now regarding editing the config.js, it need to be edited according to your area . There some tutorials for that too.

        is it working or not? prior message says working, your new question seems it is not

                    The screen remains blank after start up.
