      Hello, when setting up Emulationstation and Retropie on a Pi5 initially I had it connected to an Ultrawide monitor. It seems to have set the default resolution to that and when I try to move the Pi to a standard size monitor I get an error about Emulationstation crashing on boot. Went back to the Ultrawide and it booted up fine. How do I get it to check and set the monitors launch resolution each time it boots?

        There's no resolution related setting in EmulationStation - are you sure you haven't set-up the resolution in your desktop ?
        Please post the EmulationStation log taken after starting EmulationStation with

        emulationstation --debug
