          @Ety60 hm… then they should be looking at the config folder under each separate mm folder

          u cannot start it twice from the same folder

              @Ety60 from the separate mm installation folders, right

              ~/MagicMirror
              and
              ~/MagicMirror2

              assuming there is a coding error someplace, rename like this

              ~/MagicMirror1
              and
              ~/MagicMirror2

              then there is no, MagicMirror folder to use from

                I have done that but it still uses 1 config file. I have found that it always uses the config file of the MagicMirror that I run first.

                  npm start

                        There is an error in the second console output. This one:

                        listen EADDRINUSE:  address already in use  128.0.0.1:8080

                            no problem, I should have looked at the console output earlier. would you just like to tell me which other port I can choose?
