      I’m not a new user to retropie. I’ve been using it for years but I never messed with anything in the command line. I got this lcd screen that is similar to waveshare and uses their drivers, but when I installed the drivers to my rpi, it wouldn’t let me exit the command line. This happened last year and I couldn’t find anything to help me, nor can I remember what the error was, but I think that I could’ve installed the wrong version for retropie. I don’t want to try this again because I have a lot of save data on it. Can anyone help me?

        I’m not new to using retropie, but I wanted to add an LCD screen to mine and when I downloaded the drivers through the command line, I tried to type in emulation station to come back. When I did this it gave me an error, I don’t remember what the error was because this happened last year, but it wouldn’t let me back in retropie. I think this could be something wrong with the retropie software that I download, because I think I remember trying to exit the command line on my tv and it not working, but I still don’t want to risk it because I have a lot of saved data on my rpi. Can someone help me?
