@mitu They don't work at all. :(

I ran through the install instructions posted on the main page twice to be sure. Fresh RetroPie install on a 32GB card, updated everything RetroPie then right to the shutdown scripts. No go. So I did it again with a fresh install with no updates. Still no go. I also used Putty so I could copy and paste the commands with no chance of incorrectly typing them in.

The former dev said he hasn't touched them in over 16 months.

EDIT for added info

@quicksilver I’ll try another SD card first, I have one that I was using to start an arcade cab build, but I haven’t really started yet, so not a big deal.

@sixstring396 this is normal behavior. The pi should start to boot, then detect that the switch is in the off position and shut back down.
