    I guess you could try deleting (or just rename it):
    /opt/retropie/configs/mame4all/cfg/default.cfg

    I’ve attached my copy (you need to rename it to .cfg).

    Hi Floob, Im using a windows based pc, should this txt file look like jibberish on my pc ?. if i navigate to this file using ssh, can i just delete then replace with your copy, I dont want to have to go through reflashing an image of retropie and tranfering all my roms. Thanks agian Floob.

    Yes, it should look jibberish as its not a text file. But please backup yours in case there is an issue.
    I’m not sure of the approved clean way of resetting the config besides this sort of approach (or rebuild the image/emulator)

    I think I’ll go down the fresh image route, I have multiple duplicate roms, so this time I will take my time and do it right, Thanks Floob, I’m going to follow your video for configuring Mame controls. Your a gentleman if your ever in Glasgow I’ll buy you a pint.

    Sorry it didnt work – I’ll see if I can get it to work on my setup.
    But yes, updating to the latest image would be a good idea to get the latest benefits.

    I’ll look out for you here:
