    Hi there. I have installed RetroPie on top of NOOBS and I can boot to the RetroPie screen no problem. I have following the guide here (https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Manual-Installation/).

    I do NOT see any ROMS or any other screen besides the configuration screen? Did I miss something?

      RetroPie does not come included with any ROMS, you must add those yourself. Once you add them then the systems will start showing up in the retropie menu. If you followed the guide and installed everything properly this is your next step.

        @Swagman89 thank you! I guess I misunderstood.

        Can you suggest a website for the roms?

          That is not allowed here. If you do a quick google search I'm sure you can figure it out from there.

            @Swagman89 Thank you. I missed that. My apologies. . So with the install all of the folders for all systems are created?
            If a system is not there do I just create a folder?

              With the initial instal you should have folders for all the systems supported.

              this is an example of how the roms directory will look inside something like WinSCP. You can also access your roms directory through samba by typing \\RETROPIE into your file explorer's menu or alternatively \Exa.mple.Ip.Address for example mine would be \\10.0.0.4
