Completely reset all controller configs

[maschine]

Hi folks,

I have messed around with too many different controllers, settings, remappings, etc, resulting in a big chaos.

Now I am wondering if I can set this back to zero on all levels (ES, retroarch, individual emulators) and start a fresh controller config? Any help appreciated, thanks!

You can do this from Retropie Setup choose Configuration Tools > emulationstation and choose the Clear/reset option.

Thank you, I will give it a try. This will also remove remappings of single cores/ROMs?

No, if you've saved additional remaps, you need to manually delete them from the the \\config folders - each system has its own folders to store the input remapping.

I have the same problem but can't access the Configure Tools option due to my controller not being set properly. Can I completely clear the settings another way?

@colstar Use a keyboard ?

@mitu Thanks for replying.

I tried plugging my PC's keyboard into one of the USB ports but it wasn't detected and didn't respond.

@colstar Is F4 working (should quit EmulationStation) ? If so, then type

cd RetroPie-Setup
sudo ./retropie_setup.sh

and you'll be in the setup script, from where you can follow up and reset the input configuration.

@mitu Thanks for replying.

I just formatted the sd card and reinstalled as I haven't got a keyboard that works with the PI. Controller is setup and working fine now. :)

@windg
Was this option removed/moved?

closest I can see is "configedit" but if I select that I still don't get an option to reset all of them.

Where can I find this now?

No. Still here:

Yes Configuration / tools is there, but I don't see the reset option.

Closest I can find in there is "configedit"

Edit my bad, re read the post and somehow missed the "emulationstation"
