      Like mitu said.... definitely use Win32Disk imager. It's a little tricky the first time you make an image, but it copies everything really well. If you have a 32 gig card, it will copy whatever size is used on the card. Then write to to a larger card and expand the card size in Raspi-Config. I've done this numerous times, over many years of doing this... it works.

      Don't both look at the contents of the mini-SD in Win10 as it's confusing. The card will come up as a drive in Win10, but it's only showing what Win10 can read. The rest of the contents are unable to be read.

        @xNYARLx Choose the letter correponding to the boot partition. The resulting img should be approx 32Gb and will contain both partitions - the while entire sdcard content.

          THX Guys!!!
          Solution: Don't use "RUFUS"! Use Win32Disk imager! :)

            Yes, it looks fine.
            You might want to change the console font to something like Lat2-Terminus22x11 to show correctly the Polish locale messages - modify /etc/defaults/console-setup and add

            FONT="Lat2-Terminus22x11.psf"
            

            at the end.

                @xNYARLx Don't use the 'Save Configuration' menu - use a game/input override instead of that. What settings are you trying to set ?

                  i want OFF all wideo filters, and set wideo/picture scallling to 16:9 and i want this like global to all games on NEOGEO, all games on SNES, etc.

                    @xNYARLx RetroPie doesn't come with any video filter/shader applied. By default, RetroArch is configured to use the original (core provided) resolution for the games. How did you install RetroPie ?

                              @xNYARLx This looks like the Shader settings in RetroArch's Ozone menu . There is no shader configured by default in RetroPie and the RetroArch's menu is configured with RGUI (not Ozone). So you're either not using the RetroPie image or you changed those settings yourself - which one is it ?

                                  This should work:

                                   CONFIGURATION FILE FOR SETUPCON
                                  
                                  # Consult the console-setup(5) manual page.
                                  
                                  ACTIVE_CONSOLES="/dev/tty[1-6]"
                                  
                                  CHARMAP="UTF-8"
                                  
                                  CODESET="guess"
                                  FONTFACE="Lat2-Terminus"
                                  FONTSIZE="22x11"
                                  
                                  VIDEOMODE=
                                  
                                  # The following is an example how to use a braille font
                                  # FONT='lat9w-08.psf.gz brl-8x8.psf'
                                  

                                  Since this is a system file, you need to use the root account to edit it - from the console, you can run

                                  sudo nano /etc/default/console-tools
                                  

                                  and do your edits.
