Unable to Change emulators
-
@Ken-Tipton Sounds like you have disabled the runcommand menu - check the runcommand settings from the RetroPie menu in Emulation Station.
-
@mitu They can't access the runcommand menu at all I think from what they wrote. Not just being able to change emulator.
-
So I changed the file extension from emulators.cfg to emulators.bak and that fixed the issue. Just for my knowledge what did that exactly do?
Thank You MITU

The association between ROMs/Games and emulators is stored in that file. If the file becomes corrupted (for some reason),
runcommand
might have trouble reading it and might not run correctly.Can you post the contents of the renamed file here ? Just to see if indeed the file was at fault.

Well, there's nothing suspect in the entries you posted, although the complete file would be useful to detect any issues. For large text contents, you can use
pastebin.com
.EDIT: Why do you have such a large file - did you manually add associations for all your ROMs ? Do you have more than 30000 roms ?
-
I have about 8k games. I said 30k lines but I think the cut off was actually 30k words.
<script src="https://pastebin.com/embed_js/szX6Lw1X"></script>

The file doesn't seem faulty. Can you rename it back and see if you still have the problem ?
-
renamed it and it still works
I don't know what the problem was but renaming it seemed to make it work
