        I’ve started this installation process from 3 years ago on an old Acer laptop running Windows 10. It’s installing MM2 right now. Just wondering…have the walkthrough steps/commands changed in the intervening 3 years in any way that I need to know? I scanned the 85 posts and didn’t see any, but I could have missed it/them. Thanks! And, I’m really glad this topic is still alive!

            @sdetweil Perfect timing…thanks! I was trying “npm start” and “npm serveronly” with no luck. I’ll give it a go.

              Just for clarity, I enter (without starting/ending quotes), npm “start”:“node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js”???

                        Sam, is there something that I need to change in the original post that is causing problems?
