      I'm running the latest Retropie image 4.7.11 from the repository.

      When playing a retroarch emulator, and going back to the config menu looks like retroarch on the Wii. Green screen themed with no background.

      I have a canned image from another source which looks like standard retroarch when backing out to the config menu.

      The config you I'm referencing is related to hitting "hotkey + X" on a controller.

      Why does it look different?

        @billymild by default retropie uses the RGUI menu driver:
        alt text

        it sounds like you're talking about the XMB menu driver:
        alt text

        you could set it to the latter via https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Configuration-Editor/ -

        • advanced config
        • configure libretro options
        • all/retroarch.cfg
        • menu_driver = xmb

        note that RGUI is the menu that is referenced in all our docs, and may be more performant on low spec machines like Pis.
