          @sdetweil I’m away with work until Friday but obviously want to try and get to the bottom of this.
          I’ll likely end up moving the mirror to somewhere way closer to the WiFi router.
          Will this stay open until the end of the week?

          Out of curiosity when launching via pm2 should it (in the little box that pops up in terminal) mention fork?

              @JMac I would rename the existing mm folder
              and then run install again, use my script
              https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

              to help move the modules and config, I’d use my backup/restore scripts
              https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore

              backup before rename, restore after reinstall

                may sound like a daft question but how do I rename the magicmirror folder? I’ve run your back up (hopefully).

                  @JMac in Linux the rename command is mv

                  cd ~
                  mv MagicMirror newname

                    sorry to sound extremely daft, but what should I be renaming it? Is there a preferred name or one which makes most sense?

                      @JMac any name that works for you, you are just making room for the installer which is hard coded to use MagicMirror, and will abort if that folder is already created

                        once a new name is picked can it later be changed back to magicmirror just to keep everything standard?

                        Also, when you say,
                        mv magicmirror newname, I’m guessing the newname bit is actually what I want to call it, or do I put the new name after?
                        I’ve got a terrible feeling I’ll have to start the whole thing again which I definitely won’t look forward to.
