      Use raspi-config and enable Auto-Login to console from the Boot-Options - this should start Emulationstation on boot on the next restart.

          @DatLegend327 Then add more info about your system, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Did you add something new in the autostart.sh file ?

                @DatLegend327 Sorry, we don't offer support for 3rd party images.
                Install the RetroPie's image from retropie.org.uk/download, this will give you a functioning system. Changing the password is not supposed to disable the Emulationstation start on boot.

                    @DatLegend327 I would try a fresh install. Card format, write a fresh 4.4 image from this site and start again.
                    The Retropie image comes with Rasbian so you are only replacing what it is preloaded with, but you will unlikely encounter any problems.

                        @DatLegend327 let us know how you get on. It sounds like hard work but it's easier than it seems.

                            @Potatopops9 please start a new thread and do not hijack others that are not related to your problem. Thanks.
