      Hello
      Sorry if this has been answered already. I am currently running 4.6 on my pi4. Can I update to 4.7 thru the update in menu, or do I have to reflash? Thanks

        You can update via the RetroPie-Setup update menu.

          Willl it work if I update from 4.2 or 4.3 (can't remember what version I have) to 4.7 via the update menu? I set all the system about 2 years ago and I can't remember exactly how many settings I modified.. :)

            @papinist Probably not - you should use a new installation and copy over your ROMs/BIOS files.

              @papinist I've literally updated from 4.4 to 4.7 yesterday. See my post here about the steps I took:

              It might help a bit?
