      I just noticed that I forgot to put Remote control in the module folder. I did the manipulation again, then did a git pull again and npm install, that’s it, it’s back to normal, no more update messages, a big thank you to you for your help. how can I thank you do you have a kitty to make a donation cordially

        @pat59 right something editing package.json and modules.json

        can you do
        git diff > somefile.txt

        it will list the changes

        post so i can see

        but most likely we will do on my scripts, do NOT save those files, and the originsls will be restored

        or the brute force way

        git reset  --hard HEAD

            @pat59 you must be in the module folder, same as when trying to update

            please

            cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RemoteControl
            git diff >somefile.txt

                @pat59 yes, the output has been sent to the file somefile.txt

                please paste its content here

                in linux the ‘rule’ is, if all is ok, produce no output… this was set when systems were connected over slow phone lines with modems… so no output was better than waiting to read all was good.

                    @pat59 put in code block like always

                    paste text with empty line above and below
                    select text just pasted
                    hit the button </> above the messge editor

                    you cannot ‘attach’ files… only pictures…

                    there shouldn’t be that much in the paste output anyhow

                    neither of those files is very big

                        @pat59 weird
                        in the module folder do

                        git reset  --hard HEAD
                        

                        this will restore all changed files back to the repo level

                        then your module update process should work
