    I fitted a Pi Zero W in a case, all glued. Now I need to 'factory' reset the Retropie installation - to get rid of my settings and any ROMs.

    How would I do this? Thanks

          Unfortunately there is no way to reset retripie in one final sweep. Your projects should always have access to the sd card in some way. Anything can go bad, sd card goes bad, configs go bad, corruption happens.

            @lostless So only way to do this is to take the card out?

              @jay81uk unless you want to start manually erasing files
