                OK, so if you're at the command prompt, then run sudo raspi-config and you'll be presented with a menu, where you can follow the instructions from the topics I mentioned and re-enable auto-login.
                What happens if you type sudo raspi-config and press enter after you login ?

                        @blazein Then you may have a different problem. The way RetroPie configures auto-login is exactly how you set it up in raspi-config, so if it doesn't work now then there's another problem at stake.

                                    @blazein It means your Emulationstation crashed - so probably auto-login works now.

                                            @blazein said in First boot up of retropie comes up with a command line.:

                                            @mitu i did the auto login again from the raspi config settings now im getting pure virtual method called terminate called without an active exception aborted

                                            Yes, and I said that's an error from Emulationstation, not related to the auto-login. Is auto-login working now or you still get the login prompt ?
