      I installed retropie on my raspberry Pi 4 and am playing SNES and N64.
      In NES and SNES, you can select shaders to enjoy screen effects, but
      However, when I try to select a shader on the N64, only the folder is displayed and I cannot select a shader.
      How can I use shaders on the N64?

        Which emulator? How are you trying to apply the shader? Please provide some more details.

          Sorry, I shouldn't have left out any unnecessary information.
          I installed lr-mupen64 because retropie only allows installation of lr-mupen64 or mupen64.
          Start the game ROM and launch the retroarch settings screen with hotkey+X button
          I selected the shader item.
          I then selected load.
          I see a large number of shaders there in SNES and NES.
          N64 doesn't show anything there.

            The shaders are common for all RetroArch/Libretro emulators.

            If you don't see any shader presets for the n64 system, you either changed the configuration for that system or modified the video driver for the default (gl).
            A verbose log should provide more diagnostic info, get one from running the lr-mupen64plus libretro core and post it on pastebin.com to take a look.

              Thank you!
              I don't know why it was Glcore. I changed it to Gl as you suggested and the shaders are now enabled!
              Thanks so much for the help!
