Re: Followed guides but Colecovision still not showing

So brand new to raspberry pie, saw the old posting for this but not really understanding which config file to move, were to find it and how to move it. Could someone please help me or possibly post the command line

Thanks

That other post they are just saying there's a couple locations that es_systems.cfg can be stored. One place is global (/etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg) and the other place is local (or custom ~/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg). Your local one will take precedence over the global one if it is present. When you install/uninstall emulators, only the global version gets updated but the local/custom one you have to update manually.

cp /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg ~/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg

Here's the documentation on it:

FIXED!

It was so simple to fix this. It appears that the es_systems.cfg file was not updating when the new emulator was installed, so I just had to delete the old one and it created a file on reboot.
