Thank you, @sdetweil for your script…do you have any other instructions on your script or PM2? I wasn’t really understanding PM2 but now I do but I don’t want it to start automatically right now until I get it ready. I’ll continue my search. Again, thank you.

My common sense side actually won out. Decided to just reformat everything and start over. The last time I used this Raspberry Pi was literally like 1.5 years or so ago. So, I originally downloaded the Raspbian Sketch and saw that the latest was Buster. Plus, the same thing for MagicMirror. Better to just start fresh.

Thank you @sdetweil, I’m just frustrating! I’m very new but I normally understand this stuff. I was working on this years ago but then stopped and just a few days ago decided to give it another shot and was updating everything which worked but couldn’t get Magic Mirror to work. So, I tried something someone posted on here and now I’m stuck. It’s looking like I have to reformat and do everything over again? Just frustrating and stuff.

Anyone understand what I’m talking about or need more information? Please feel free to ask.

Very newbie here and for the last two hours, I’ve been trying to research my current problem. I went into rasp-config and change the boot option to “desktop GUI”. And now, it’s asking me for a password and the default password of “raspberry” isn’t working. Now I can’t log on at all. How does one get into the rasp-configuration to change it back to where it will automatically go direction to desktop? When I originally set this PI3 up, I never set a password. I hope I don’t have to re-install the OS because of this stupid mistake? Thank you!

Hello my name is TL and I’m very very very new. I’m just trying to get something to show up and it seems that when I start the MagicMirror that I get all the other modules but the CalendarExt module. For some odd reason I have a feeling I’m missing something rather simple. Below is a copy of my config file and my npm start dev below:.
