        @asianchinaboi Are you typing this on your RetroPie's command line prompt ?

            @asianchinaboi I literally typed the same command and it worked. Make sure you're not mis-typing anything

                @asianchinaboi Did you remove the RetroPie-Setup folder or uninstalled RetroPie ?

                      @asianchinaboi said in i get this error when i try to boot up emulationstation please help:

                      retropie_packages.sh

                      The retropie_packages.sh should be in your $HOME/RetroPie-Setup folder, it's part of the RetroPie install. How did you install RetroPie - what image did you use ?
