      @debric We don't support 3rd party images, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

      Moreover, the RetroPie image license doesn't allow commercial usage - so you bought the kit from a scammer, which sold it to you illegally, without mentioning the ROMs included, for which he/she didn't have a license.

      If you wish to get support - please install the image from retropie.org.uk/download and follow the Docs to get it installed and configured.

        @cyperghost so if I get this well on the sd card I just have the system and on an external usb all the roms? So the roms can be played via usb?

              Why don't you ask for a refund/RMA ?

                  @cyperghost So I need to put all the roms who are in my raspberry into an usb with same folders, or can I copy the main rom folder to the USB key?

                        Victory ! I succed , this can help other users, we never know....ifact I wrote what @mitu told me sudo ./RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh. So I arrived in the grey window Retropie script with different choices. I ran Update Retropie set up script and it works before I checked I was on Version 4.' now is 4.4.12. I am sure the fact of deleting some games helped.my big mistake was to instal all packages on a 32G Gard ( to small)
                        Anyway Thank you so much all.
                        As soon as I receive my 128Go card I will do a copy via applePi-baker
                        Have a nice WE
