@juan19802005 You might get some assistance if you provide more information than "It doesn't work".

@jonnykesh sorry pal I've never posted in any forms I read the rules and understand what you mean..by me saying it doesn't work I meant,when I choose a game and I get the start option I click start on my remote but it doesn't start the game

@juan19802005 I understand that. I'm saying you should post some relevant info. Are you even using a Pi? A Pi3, a Pi2, a zero...? What controller? What game? What system? What emulator?
Not every game starts by pressingstart
. For example the Sega Master System had no dedicatedstart
button on the controller, you just pressed button1

If a emu that had a start button, have you tried remapping your controller? Have you tried a different controller, maybe the controller is FUBAR.

@juan19802005 if you don't even know which emulator you're using and what configs you've changed I'd suggest going back to the docs and giving them a read.
https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/
https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Controller-Configuration/
And if you're modifying retroarch configs
