How do I delete a module? Please explain to me like I’m 3 YO. I know nothing about coding

@r3d6

open a terminal window
ctrl-alt-t

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
rm -rf   xxxxx

where xxxxx is the module you have installed and now want to delete.

exact letter case matters
foo is not the same as Foo on Linux

then do

cd ~/MagicMirror/config
nano config.js

use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move up and down, left and right

find the entry

module:"xxxxx`,

where xxxxx is the module u want to delete
move the cursor to the right end of that line

hit the enter key
type

 disabled:true,

hit Ctrl-o
hit enter

hit ctrl-x

you will be back at the terminal window prompt

do

cd ~/MagicMirror

you can now restart MagicMirror however you do that
npm start
or
pm2 restart

we did the disable approach cause it’s the easiest to do, and requires the least amount of content format knowledge.
