      As title says, how do i remove child emulation station and go back to regular??

      Do I just go to experimental packages and uninstall kids mode?

      Or is there a setting i change to go to default? please help.

        Did you ever figure out how to fix it? I'm having the same issue.

          i had the same problem last week, i got stuck in kiosk mode
          to get back to regular go into:-

          /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation

          then open es_settings.cfg
          and make sure the UIMODE is set to :-

          <string name="UIMode" value="Full" />

          then save and reboot system

          hope that helps :)

              Eh, what exactly do you mean by 'getting stuck in Kidmode'?
              Do you mean you cannot unlock the UI mode back to full? Or that you want to revert to stock ES?

              If tetris has thought me anything, it's that errors pile up and that accomplishments dissappear.
