      Re: Deleting Roms on the retropie interface?

      I mistakenly loaded an “Atari 2600” file folder containing about 700 Roms as .bin files into the Atari 2600 folder and it showed up as Atari 2600 in the game list. I couldn’t delete it by going into Edit Meta Data then delete (no option there). Is there a way to delete this folder so I can load the Roms properly?

        It might be worth you trying to delete them via SFTP or Samba share:

        Thats a pretty easy way of doing it.

        Please read the Docs before asking a new question.
