      @edmaul69 How do I change everything in the folder to 0777 permissions? manually one by one? or is changing the lr-vice folder to 0777 sufficient?

        @quicksilver if you are using winscp you can right click on the folder and go to properties and set 0777 and there is a box to check to change all files in it. Otherwise you have to do one by one.

            @edmaul69 Ok, so I changed the folder (and checked the box) so that everything in it is set to 0777 permissions. However the games are still not loading and are dumping me back to ES. Any other ideas?

              @edmaul69 ignore last post i deleted. So when you unzip the file do you have a folder called lr-vice that inside that folder has a folder called data, a file called copying and a file called vice_x64_libretro.so ? Not a folder called lr-vice inside a folder called lr-vice?

                @quicksilver can you name the old lr-vice folder in /opt/retropie/libretrocores/ back to lr-vice and just overwrite it with the new file?

                  @edmaul69 inside the lr-vice folder is a folder called data, a file called copying and a file called vice_x64_libretro.so. It is not a lr-vice folder inside of another lr-vice folder.

                      @edmaul69 Thats what I did. I over wrote mine with yours. When that didnt work I went into the folders permissions and changed it to 0777. Also any chance you could upvote three of my posts? The system is preventing from posting.

                        Any other ideas? At this point I may have to revert back to using just plain old Vice until they get lr-vice fixed.

                          @quicksilver can you rename the lr-vice on your pi to something else so it is out of the way. Then put mine on and then give 0755 permissions to all folders but 0644 to all files? So easiest way would be setting 0644 permissions to everything then individually setting the folders to 0755 permissions.

                                @quicksilver can you set your c64 retroarch.cfg back to default? Just to rule that out

                                  @quicksilver third thing. Can you make sure after choosing a game that it is booting lr-vice. Also can you post the contents of /opt/retropie/configs/c64/emulators.cfg

                                    lr-vice = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-vice/vice_x64_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/c64/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"

                                    default = "lr-vice"

                                    This is my the contents of /opt/retropie/configs/c64/emulators.cfg

                                    I can also confirm that it is booting lr-vice and I have been restarting my pi after each change.

                                      lr-vice = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-vice/vice_x64_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/c64/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"
                                      default = "lr-vice"

                                          @quicksilver are you sure when you unzip it there isnt an lr-vice folder inside an lr-vice folder? It does when i unzip it. Anyhow can you delete the lr-vice folder in libretrocores, reinstall lr-vice, then overwrite it with mine without messing with permissions or anything.

                                            @quicksilver also you are logging in as root to do the stuff in libretrocores correct?
