      Re: TAB (and most other keys) not working under MAME

      Noob here, Tab doesn't work in MAME for me. Does anyone have step by step instructions to fix it?
      Thanks

        Assuming you're using lr-mame2003, try deleting /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/mame2003/cfg/default.cfg

            You can use SFTP or access the Samba shared directory from Windows. Alternatively, you could type the following into the command-line.

            rm /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/mame2003/cfg/default.cfg

              Just curious if this was resolved. I am having the same problem but the posted solution doesn't work for me. My pi doesn't have that file in that directory and thus it cannot be deleted.

                Please start a new thread with the requested information detailed at https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Using that information, we'll be able to zero in on where the file is located.
