        @Waterrr Without any information, how are we supposed to help you?
        If it is a Raspberry, you may like to look into /boot/overlay/README; adding dtoverlay=disable.bt to /boot/confdig.txt may be what you want.

          Pi Model or other hardware: Pi3B
          RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): 4.8
          Built From: retropie-buster-4.8-rpi2_3_zero2w.img

          Controller used: PS2

          Hope that helps.

            With that board, adding "dtoverlay=disable-bt" (sorry, the dot in my prev. msg was a typo i missed to observe&edit) to /boot/config.txt (preferable) under the comment ... :

            # Additional overlays and parameters are documented /boot/overlays/README
            

            should do the trick...
