      Whatever it’s doing, it isn’t doing it correctly. “pm2 restart mm” lands me on the Chrome Desktop every time. I have to wipe the config folder by hand.

            @sdetweil said in Autostarts but doesn't run, will run on restart:

            cd ~
            rm -rf .config/chromium
            rm -rf .config/electron
            

            This was what you had mentioned earlier in the thread and worked, and it’s what I built my config wipe based on.

                Seems to be working reliably. Even why I simply do a “shutdown now” without any of my shutdown process items, it starts up correctly.

                      @ember1205 thanks!.. this exposed another problem , using the script on an ubuntu system it opened the MM page in the running chrome instance and THEN DIDN’T WAIT… so the script ‘failed’ and pm2 restarted it , over and over and over…

                      So, i just fixed THAT too… (didn’t break the prior! lol)

                        As long as you got it all fixed, then it was a good day!
