    Hey peter, when I try the commands listed it doesn’t work

    for cd home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/
    it says no such file or directory

    for /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg
    it says permission denied

    when I do manage to edit retroarch.cfg how do I save my changes? what commands do I use to save the file so I can successfully exit? furthermore how do I do the correct punctuation?

    Hey, thanks for the very quick reply

    I have been trying to follow the steps from the link you gave me which goes to this website https://www.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/updated-for-2-3-step-by-step-guide/

    I am on step 10 which tells me to put these following commands in

    cd /opt/retropie/configs/all/
    vi retroarch.cfg

    this works perfectly great, however, unfortunately I am very new to raspberry pi, so when I input the following two lines at the bottom

    input_enable_hotkey_btn = “8”
    input_exit_emulator_btn = “9”

    I run into two issues, the first issue is I am unable to make the ” symbol (when I hold shift and the button for ” it turns it into an @ sign), also I am unable to make the # symbol.

    second issue is that I have no idea how to save the file when I have input the lines (I know how to exit it without saving which is :q!)

    sorry for the nooby questions.

    Thanks.
