      I had an issue with my keyboard when setting up the controls. I have no option to use the up or down arrow thus making it impossible to navigate back to the setup. How can I resolve this? I have exhausted all my resources and can't believe something so simple results in so much frustration. I apologies for I am new to this. #retropiesetup

        Press F4 on the Keyboard, this will close EmulationStation and drop you to the command line.

        Type the following command line: sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie-setup.sh

        Select Manage Packages --> Core Packages --> EmulationStation --> Configuration --> EmulationStation

        Select Clear/Reset Emulation Station Input Configuration

        Exit out of the RetroPie Setup script.

        Reboot your Pi using: sudo reboot (I think reboot exists in raspbian, otherwise I normally use sudo shutdown -r -t 0 now)

        Hope this works for you.

        Si.
