        We would have to know the error message to attempt to help you. So, run the mirror and make note of the error message, in its entirety. Then post it here in a code block using the </> option above your message window

            First enter cd MagicMirror and enter

            Then run npm start

              @Duke86 Hi Duke, start with cd MagicMirror/ … you’re probably trying to start MM out of the wrong folder.

              Problem with config or JavaScript? Copy/paste it into JSHint.
              Check out the detailed walkthroughs on install, config, modules, etc.

                    The error message is telling you what you have to do. So, in your GUI, you can navigate to your MagicMirror/node_modules/ folder and delete the electron folder. Then open a terminal and cd MagicMirror and npm install

                      I removed the folder and this happened

                      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ cd MagicMirror
                      bash: cd: MagicMirror: No such file or directory
                      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ nmp install
                      bash: nmp: command not found
                      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ ^C
                      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $

                        You are already in the directory “MagicMirror”. cd (change directory to) can’t find the directory because you are already inside.

                        pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ nmp install
                        bash: nmp: command not found

                        Just a typo, it’s “npm”, not “nmp”.
