      @sleve_mcdichael What should I do? Should I just rename the folder and delete the splash screen folder? Sorry. I’m lost in all this technical stuff.

        Yes, try that. I'm away from my box right now so I'm runnning off of memory and what it says on the docs and github; in other words I'm not able to test it myself right now but I think that can work.

          @sleve_mcdichael Thank you so much. I have a question. If I have a small sized usb stick, can I install, let’s say Pokemon, plug it in the pi then take it out, delete Pokémon on the usb, and download more games. Will Pokémon stay on the pi or will the USB basically delete Pokémon on the pi?

            I think so, yes, it should stay on the Pi even after removed from USB and resync the USB with new games (I'd keep a copy on the computer until sure though, just in case.)
