I followed this guide and in step 9 everything looked good. Connected with new path but after uninstalling the JS UI I get error with that path. Only thing I did outside of process is at the end after re-enabling the integration I clicked start.

EDIT: I uninstalled the wrong add-on at the end. Guessing I need to start from the beginning at this point. Or should I restore from backup and start over?

EDIT: I restored backup and used freshcoast name export import. Thanks for that.

Final EDIT: Thanks for the great guide as I no longer have to look at the 7 dead nodes.

Awesome guide!

I was rather hesitant updating to ZUI, but this guide made it supersimpel.

One annoying thing, but that’s due to MacOS.
If I download the zipfile it unpacks it automatically. So I had to rename the original file before downloading it and name it zjs.zip again prior to uploading.

Many thanks!

I used this guide and was able to convert from Z-Wave JS to Z-Wave JS UI no problem!
