I am new to node-red and using the telegram packet but when I start node-red I have the following error:

```auto

How can I fix it?

Also, I need to be able to save the project I started but since I can't enter the launch I don't know how to download it.

Please help.

Greetings

Your flow is here...

This has been discussed many time on the forum and is found elsewhere with a quick and easy search...

Have you tried alternative telegram nodes in the pallete? I have used another one with good success.

Lastly you can launch node-red with the command line parameter `--safe` as is mentioned here...
