      Instead, I have a window labeled Electron running with nothing displayed. I did a git pull && npm install to do the update and had to remove both instances of package-lock.json (in the root MM folder and in the vendor subfolder) to do the update and I don’t remember modifying those. Is there some additional steps I need to do to make Electron behave?

          @swvalenti thx…

          @Wenike also not listed (ever) on the MM site

          for every module that has a package.json file do npm install

          note that its possible that IF you had to add request back in on 2.16, it will be gone on 2.17 again

          NOTE : because u already did the ‘ugrade’, you will need to use force instead of apply on the upgrade script

                    @sdetweil Uuups.
                    Sorry for the “short” information. I did´nt realised that i sent the topic.

                    Both “MMM-SystemStats” seems to unmantained and both are stopping MM from starting. I just uncommented them in the config.js and openend an issue.

                      @oberfragger it says module not found

                      we deleted a bunch of older libraries because one was discontinued (deprecated) due to a security problem not going to be fixed

                      many mm modules used them but didn’t document the usage. oops

                      I don’t see the name of the library

                      but looking at the node_helper.js shows

                      require('request')
                      

                      which is the trouble lib

                      u can add it back for this module , do

                      npm init -y
                      npm install request -- save
