      I have run the update on the MMM-Remote-Control module, and now get a white screen when starting MagicMirror.
      If I // the lines on the MMM-Remote-Control module in the config.js the Mirror shows up normally. I have deleted and reinstalled the MMM-Remote-Control module but the problem remains.

      Any advice? I do like the functionality of the Remote Control module.

              MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
              If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

                      @roramirez.
                      Thanks, you have hit the nail on the head. I did run the git pull command, I have run the reinstall (the script did not work so I ran the manual method, but I did not run the npm install.
                      Sorry, I am new at this.
                      I did search the forum but could not find a solution.

                      So, thank for pointing out my mistake and helping me rectify it.

                      @ others: thanks for sharing your problems and logs so the problem could be solved.

                      Case closed from my perspective.

                        @Hein-Jan Sorry about this, forgot to mention, that the new version introduces dependencies which must be installed.

                        @roramirez answer should work for anyone having the same problem (thanks!).
