      @matefits71 on Linux, the xwindows graphical system writes to a numbered ‘display’ , and there can be multiple.

      windows doesn’t have that. which is why I’ve written to remove that part, and also run the manual npm install in vendors and go ta folders

                      Hi, newby here… I have reinstaled MM in my win 10 laptop… It was working well until the reinstallation…
                      I am having an issue, i will try to translate it, cuz my cmd is in spanish…

                      magicmirror@2.17.1 start
                      node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

                      “node_modules” doesn’t recognize it as an internal or external command,
                      program or file by executable lot.

                      At the same time i have notice, that “.bin” folder doesn’t contain “electron js” folder inside…

                      I have had to install manually npm for fonts ans vendor’s folders…

                      Please, help me Obi Wan Kenobi…

                                ‘DISPLAY’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
                                operable program or batch file.
