      As far as I know you can download them from within the menu.

      And otherwise you can download them and put them in the correct directory.

                here you can download nightly cores :
                http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows/

                click x86 or x86_64 and find RetroArch-cores.7z

                    I am downloading the stable now.
                    I will check if it has cores in them.

                    You should also check you core-directory in the menu !

                        In above link you find them directly.
                        I can't find a mess core.

                        My advise, try mame standalone.

                            Standalone mame isn't part of retroparch.
                            You can run it without.

                            You can run mame from your console
                            then you have to run, I think :
                            mame cdimono1 -cdrm game.chd

                            there should be a bios directory somewhere.
                            You have to place the cdimono1.zip in there.

                            or run mame with a click
                            You get into a menu.

                            Much is explained on https://docs.mamedev.org/
                            Look at the documentation.

                                    It is better to help you this way, so you learn.

                                    I know it can be confusing, but once you know how it is structured, you know.

                                      Thank you for wanting to teach me

                                      so i downloaded what you suggested and extracted it ... all it was is a file named

                                      mame_libretro.dll

                                        You have to install this :
                                        https://www.mamedev.org/release.html

                                        This is an emulator that has nothing to do with retroarch and libretro-cores.
                                        That's why it's called standalone.
