      I used the Kodi Standalone technique so it would be right there but I think I messed up along the way so I goto Emulation Station and it says "It looks like your systems configuration file has not been set up or is invalid." I'm not good at using the terminal and I don't know what to do or where I messed up. If someone could explain like an idiots guide to the terminal and how to delete/fix my problem I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

        @bl3nd Did you by changed/modified the es_systems.cfg file from the /home/pi/.emulationstation folder ? Try renaming or deleting it with the ES stopped and then re-try.

            Problem solved, I did
            sudo nano /home/pi/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg to get to the file you write the system code and I just deleted what I wrote concerning Kodi as a standalone system. Then I saved it and opened Emulation Station and it was fine. I think what happened is since I couldn't do ~/RetroPie/roms/kodi I just copied what the other ones had there instead.
