      Using Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, RetroPie 4.2

      A while back, I hit the "Restart in Attract Mode" Button to see how I liked the interface. Turns out, I'm not a fan and now I have to exit out of it every time I boot the system. Is there any way to just uninstall it from the system so that this won't be an issue any longer?

        ssh into /opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh and change Attract to Emulationstation. Save the file and reboot.

        Systems: Raspberry Pi 0/2/3 Model B+
        Os: RetroPie 4.5
        Frontend: Emulationstation & Attract Mode

          After doing what @Brigane suggested, I believe you can uninstall Attract Mode from the RetroPie-Setup.
