      So there is a resolution for this. But I may have to do this via command line. This seems to be the resolution.

      Locate these lines in retroarch.cfg:

      cheevos_username
      cheevos_password

      • Make sure both username and password are correct.

      • Once you have checked this delete the line cheevos_token and save the file.

      • Start Retroarch and enjoy the achievements again.

      I am trying to find this directory using WinSCP. I was unable to locate this directory. Can someone advise on how to accomplish this?

      I am not great with command line, and I am trying not to ruin what I have done has it would take me hours to restore this.

        The location of the file is explained in https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroAchievements/ - it's in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg. The same file can be accessed over file shares at \\retropie\configs\all\retroarch.cfg if you wish to edit it from a PC.
