      @meleu Like I said do I type that in on command line? Cause I can't seem to find it. A visual aid would be nice to see.

        @RedBatman I've re-read your OP. Looks like you have an issue with your NES configs...

        My tip:

        1. install/update lr-nestopia from binary via retropie_setup (assuming you know how to use retropie_setup menus, go to Manage packages >> main >> lr-nestopia). After the update/installation, it will create the file /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg.rp-dist.
        2. In order to get the "factory settings" for NES emulators, replace the content of nes/retroarch.cfg with the content of nes/retroarch.cfg.rp-dist. This command can do the job:
        cp /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg.rp-dist /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg
        

        If, after what I explained above, you still need a visual aid, you can use this link.

            @meleu Also i typed this in yesterday.

            sudo rm /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

            i saw a forum someone said this could fix it but it didn't do much

              @RedBatman reinstall retroarch from binary and you'll get that file back.

                  @RedBatman just an update should be enough, but you can do as you wish.

                      Perform a fresh install.

                        @meleu Does this mean I have to reinstall all of retropie?

                          I think I have figured something out. I had once used a save core override on nestopia and thats giving me the message, since when I use the other emulators they don't have the configuration override message on them.

                            I do not know why but suddenly I remembered a memorable sentence from Bruce Wayne [Batman Begins (2005)]:

                              Hey just quick question but could I use default cores or cfg by altering the files in Raspian Desktop?
