        You can make backup of current binary emulationstationin opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation/
        If you like kids mode more then just copy it back.

            @Hex I haven't had the chance, apologies. Should be able to look into it in the coming days, potentially Monday in as worst case scenario.

            I'll let you know how it goes.

            Thank you.

                Okay.. This is the 2nd time i tried updating from source and it froze at 84% and turned off my network on my Pi.. basically i cant SSH or SAMBA and on my Pi itself its stuck at 84%

                the line its at is

                [84%] Building CXX object es-app/CMakeFiles/emulationstation.dir/src/guis/GuiFastSelect.cpp.o

                  @red2blue Make backup of your current binary BEFORE compiling!

                      @red2blue you need to exit EmulationStation before updating.

                        @red2blue Yes it will be overwritten!
                        and make suggestion @pjft
                        If you can't exit then connect via SSH and type killall emulationstation

                          @cyperghost @pjft okay killed ES, and made backup just in case.

                          Should i update binary or source?

                            does this feature come with the latest build on emulation station?? so i can still use the new favorite system?

                            Update from source. I think that in a couple of days you can get it updating from binary. But since the PR was merged a few hours ago, I'm not sure if the binary version was updated.

                            @meleu told you already

                                @red2blue What's the output if you type ps -a
                                I'm on 90% of compiling I can upload binary to my github archive! And you can copy it back! Even if this is not the recommended way.

                                        @cyperghost so how would i go about using that link you sent me in SSH?

                                        Also will this override my retroarch settings?

                                            @pjft so i deleted kids mode manually and now its under reg emulation station, under the current new version (idk how since it didnt even fully update) but it doesnt have the favorite "X" button under game list?

                                            Edit: It also doesnt have Favorite's only when i press select
