          @RIKKO14 correct… in linux most commands return nothing if successful…

          so that is good… you asked to erase a folder
          and it did that

          now restart MagicMirror

          pm2 start MagicMirror

              @RIKKO14 fun… try this

              we need to edit a js file

              cd ~/MagicMirror/js
              nano electron.js
              

              scroll down to

              	let address = (config.address === void 0) | (config.address === "") ? (config.address = "localhost") : config.address;
              

              add a bank line after

              on the blank line, copy/paste these lines

              	mainWindow.webContents.on("new-window", function(event, url) {
                    event.preventDefault();
                    // This will open a new Electron window to load the url.
                    shell.openExternal(url);
                });
              

              so it looks like this when you are done

              	let address = (config.address === void 0) | (config.address === "") ? (config.address = "localhost") : config.address;
              	mainWindow.webContents.on("new-window", function(event, url) {
                    event.preventDefault();
                    // This will open a new Electron window to load the url.
                    shell.openExternal(url);
                });
              	mainWindow.loadURL(`${prefix}${address}:${config.port}`);
              

              ctrl-o to save the file
              ctrl-x to exit nano
              cd …

              then

              pm2 restart MagicMirror
