      Hi
      I am new to this but I followed a guide on how to set it up but when I start it up on my tv I get to a desktop and not to set up my controllers and so on ... I am not sure what to do now :-/
      I downloaded the right version of retropie image and used a program to transfer it to my as card :-/

      Please help me

        @diptwit this is the only guide to follow - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/ - you won't see a desktop by this method :)

            @diptwit there is no desktop in retropie. You are not installing retropie. Follow the guide.
