      There was an issue in runcommand that it would mess the configs if they didn't end in a newline character (so technically the last line being incomplete). This is worked around now, but could have caused a problem if the file was manually edited. I have fixed a few things since 4.0 that have been noticed since the release and will likely do a new image soon - in the meantime please update retropie-setup to avoid this happening. cheers.

        @BuZz Just to confirm -- reinstall the the snes emulator from the backend by accessing the "Edit Configurations" option in the RetroPie Menu? If so, I will do what you recommend when I get back home today.

          Please try the following.

          • From a terminal please do rm /opt/retropie/configs/snes/retroarch.cfg or delete the file over windows networking
          • Go to Emulation Station -> RetroPie and do Update RetroPie-Setup script
          • Go to Manage Packages -> Main section > lr-snes9x-next - and choose "Update from binary"

          and all should be good.
