        Hi,
        You cannot run RetroPie directly from a Raspbian desktop, but you can launch it from the main terminal with:
        emulationstation

          It should automatically start RetroPie on the next reboot.

          If not type in the terminal:


          1. sudo raspi-config
            (That should bring you to the Raspberry Pi configuration panel.)
          2. Select: Boot Options
          3. Select: Command line option
          4. Select: Reboot option

          Don't sweat it.
          When in doubt, take a BYTE out of life.

          😎
