Tried and no luck I’m afraid :-(

Could another file be overwriting it?

I see there is also a ‘retroarch.cfg.rp-dist’ under /opt/retropie/configs which looks the same as the retroarch.cfg file but clean?

Also, any thoughts on where the changes in my setup (attachment) got written to? (as it didn’t show what it changed, and when I changed it to option 2 – ALT, it didn’t change anything in my retroarch.cfg file.

Appreciate the help ! :-)
