Something Wrong with RetroArch

[system]

I can’t open RetroArch for Windows. What should I do?

Hi DeriLoko2, We’ll need a little more information about what you tried before we can make any real suggestions. Did you just double-click on retroarch.exe? If so, you should know that RetroArch can either be run from the command line (by invoking retroarch.exe along with any CLI options) or using the RetroArch-Phoenix GUI launcher, which is included with the Windows package.

I wrote some documentation/tutorials that cover getting started with RetroArch-Phoenix:

Getting Started with RetroArch

Advanced RetroArch Configuration Options

Let me know if you have any questions about any of it.

If you were already using RA-P and it’s not launching things, paste the log output (File > Show Log) here and we’ll try to help.

Oh thank you.
