        Did you also update the runcommand package from the core package section ?

            You can give it another try to update RetroPie-Setup script (there's no need to update runcommand again) and see if you still have this problem ?

                @mitu I’m having same issue now. I bought a new raspberry pi4 2GB (v1.5). I update my sd to 4.7.20 and it seems to work well but when I run any game I have this error. I tried to update Retropie-Setup again but the error still remain. Any suggestion?

                  Are you sure you're getting the same error ? This was fixed almost 2 years ago, before the 4.7 release.

                    Yes, same identical error.
                    Edit: I made some other attempts. I flashed a clean 4.7.20 retropie and no errors on launching games.
                    Whit my old 4.7.1 updated to 4.7.20 I have this error. The problem is that I have to use my old distro because is already complete and configured.

                      What's different in your old install ? Did you change the locale from the default (en_GB) ?

                        Nothing different. Resolved uninstalling and reinstalling runcommand from Retropie-Setup script. Now it seems to work like a charm.
                        Thanks @mitu for replying me.
