      Hi Guys, My raspberry pi 3 b + was updating all Files.. Now He is doing auto reboot all the time I tried a new sd with fresh retropie works good (never will update all together) .
      My Question is: how to get all my roms and Savegames from my old sd? When I plugging in my PC he told me wrong file system of course it's not ntfs or fat32. I was trying to open a backup. Img with Deamon tools but when I'm starting he gives me a error to.
      Could someone help me?

        @meynti The backup image contains 2 partitions, one for boot and one for the system itself. The 2nd partition is formatted with the Linux ext4 filesystem and cannot be read by Windows. You'll need a Linux system to be able to read it - either try a live linux distro (that you can run from an USB drive on your Windows PC) or find a Linux installed pc to read the image.
