@CLLA1972 ok, I don’t get what is going on, but

cd ~/MagicMirror
rm -rf node_modules/env-paths
npm  install  electron@19.0.15

@sdetweil Hi again. First of all, thanks for the great help. I am really in deep water here and I really do not want to reboot the whole PI and start from scratch. Here the result from the latest command and the log file. Again THANKS !! [2022-10-17T20_15_34_187Z-debug-0.log](Invalid file type.

@CLLA1972

repeat the last message instructions but change the npm install to

npm install electron@19.0.15 --omit=dev

@sdetweil

sdetweil

@karsten13 dang phones

CLLA1972

@sdetweil Did now the commande without the Typo :flushed_face: and god this one (similar to a previous one) . I am getting close to the solution? :-)

sdetweil

@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
