for a start it looks like you have some nodes installed twice in two different places.. the google home notify one and the yeelight/noble one - so they need to be de-duplicated from wherever you have installed them.

Then the yeelight seems to have two connections - one to 61.1.861.291 is failing as I guess that may be trying to get somewhere via a name lookup that is either failing or giving an odd reply (as I wouldn't expect it to connect out to the internet (or maybe it does ???)) - and then again to the more local IP address it fails... maybe due to the dupication which needs to be fixed first.

Then it fails to read an mp3 file... this may need the path to be specified more unix style with / rather than \ - so d:/tmp/... etc (or use \ to escape the \ - so d:\tmp\... either should work)

Luckily you are running version 0.20 so you can start it in safe mode using the command line `node-red --safe` . This will start without trying to run the flows so ou can edit and remove bad nodes.

Before that you need to remove the nodes you have installed twice (like the yeelight one). I don't know how you installed them so tricky to guess where you installed it. I guess you may have installed one locally and one globally (-g).

`61.1.861.291` is `192.168.1.16` in reverse, not sure where that comes from, but it is not correct.
