      Hello,

      I installed from zero the lastest Retropie using the strech image, I had in my old image Pixel Desktop with Chromium and had it ready to watch Netflix for example.
      I installed in the lastest Retropie, LDXE (Pixel Desktop replacement?) and it opens and I get a very clean desktop, someone can tell me how I install an internet browser there? I'm a bit lost with this. The old Pixel Desktop is gone forever? LDXE is better? Sorry if i'm asking something obvius.

      Thanks!

        The Pixel desktop is actually LXDE, it's probably the new version that's different a bit from the previous one. If you wish to install Chromium, then open a terminal/command line and install it by running

        sudo apt-get -y install chromium-browser
