    if the game don't start is their a way to auto remove it or maybe do a scan like batch rom checker filter out working roms and remove bad roms in retropie it self.

      @ian02293 You can delete a ROM from Emulationstation's list view using the ROM menu that comes up with Select.
      For filtering bad ROMs - you'll need a specialized program like ClrMamePro, RomCenter, etc. See the details on ROMset misatch in https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Arcade/.

          We don't even know what system the OP is talking about : assuming he is talking about arcade and he has read the arcade documentation to pick the right romsets for the emulator he is using, there is still the issue of non-working games, however removing those non-working games might lead to more non-working games (case of the non-working parents with working clones) if he is using split romsets.
