      Hi new member here. I am looking for some help with my pc setup. I ran retropie on ubuntu 16 for along time with zero issues. Then I upgraded to ubuntu 18 and retropie wont open at all. I can click on it and it flashes like it will open but never does. Any help would be appreciated. I apologize if this has already been addressed. I did a search and didn't find anything.

        Need more info..you updated Retropie completely? What version?

        I suspect you didn't update retropie and packages after upgrading perhaps.

        You can type emulationstation in a terminal to see if it throws any errors.
