      I am on raspberry pi 3B+ and i want to use raspbian OS again, but I don't know how. I have tried changing booting settings but it says i need lightdm and when i run sudo apt-get install lightdm i get a lot of errors and it doesn't work. Is there a way i can go back to raspbian OS again?

        @CodeKing Try installing the desktop first - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#where-did-the-desktop-go - and then selecting the boot to desktop - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#how-do-i-boot-to-the-desktop-or-kodi.

        Make sure you're package list fully updated first - run sudo apt update from a terminal or use the RetroPie-Setup update function to update the OS/packages.
