        @CLLA1972 I don’t know

        make a backup

        see my https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore

        then rename the MagicMirror folder out of the way, and run my install script. see if we can get running
        see
        https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

        if so, then run the restore to put back all the modules and config in the new mm folder created by install

          @CLLA1972 yes, looks like another fun npm install problem

          do

          cd ~/MagicMirror
          sudo rm -rf node_modules
          rm package-lock.json
          npm install --omit=dev

                        show output of node -v

                        run my upgrade script with force instead of apply (as u are on the latest release)

                        bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)" force
