Hey emulation nation, I see this is a solid community full of helpful people as well as answers. So I was wondering if you could help me with my problem.

Evident from the title i have Windows 10 64-bit OS and every time I start retroarch.exe i get the infamous “stopped working” message.What the title does not say due to character restrictions is that i have a fairly standard office small factor tower with Intel Core 2 Duo and Intel Gma 4500m graphics processor. I hope that isn’t the issue because modded drivers have served me well up until now. I tried the DirectX webkit installer said I have the latest version installed, then tried running from cmd with --menu --verbose and alternating between the two same error message, finally tried changing cfg menu_driver to “glui” also same output.

I really don’t know what to try next. Kinda was hoping that someone could tell me how to post a log and then analyze it.

Thank you in advance.

if you launch retroarch_debug.exe --menu --verbose from a command line, it should print the errors to the console window. You can also try changing your menu driver to “rgui”.

Thank you for the quick reply

This is what I get,also rgui was before the change to glui. Furthermore Is the Red one the problem?

Hmm. Possibly.

You could try changing your video driver to d3d or SDL, though you won’t be able to use shaders or libretro-gl cores (mupen and ppsspp, for example).
