      @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.

                          Ok just figured out code blocks lol

                          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?

                                  @quicksilver also are you testing with a game that was working prior?

                                    @edmaul69 I am logging in as root. When I unzip lr-vice that you gave me there is only one lr-vice folder (not one inside of another).

                                    I initially replaced my lr-vice folder with yours. I only tried changing permissions when that didn't work. I can do what you suggest and delete that folder, reinstall lr-vice and the replace it with yours but I basically already tried that right?

                                        @quicksilver with all the different things we did who knows? Can you post the c64 section in your /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg ? I want to make sure no changes were made

                                          @quicksilver any chance you can tell me what the file extension is of the game you are testing and what game? If it is a zip let me know but also let me know what the file extension is of the file inside the zip? If it is zipped can you put the unzipped files on, restart emulationstation and test that file/s?

                                            @edmaul69 when you say overwrite, should I just replace the contents of my lr-vice folder with yours or should I just drag the whole folder over and replace?

                                            The games I am testing are not zipped. I have tried several different ones. And they are all games that were working before I made changes. The first one is ARAC.T64 and the other is SHINOBI.D64

                                            Edit: I will post the contents of the file you requested shortly
