So, I installed and configured everything as I wanted it... how do I "reset"?

Hi!

I'm starting to see the end of the line of my first RetroPie setup, and it's looking pretty good!

Got my themes working, tweaked them a big, got the splash screens running, all looking sweet!

Now I want to power it down, put the SD-card in my laptop and copy the entire installation to an image file for safe keeping.

But before I do that I want to "reset" the installation, so it appears fresh. I mean, remove all the savegames and reset the "played" count. I want to keep my configs and all, but I want the installation to feel "new" in case I'll use it to set up other Pies for friends etc.

Is there a simple way to do this?

Thanks all :)

@blodskolt It would need to be done manually by editing gamelist.xml files and removing save files from the ROMs folders. You could even write a small script to do both this things. To overwrite the playcounts to 0 and remove all .srm etc files.

@jonnykesh Alright! That's not so bad :) Guess I should get familiar with gamelist.xml ...
