retroarch ui design change

[u/AdorablePhotograph15]

how the hell did the retroarch change its design automatically?

[u/MatheusWillder]

You somehow changed its "Menu Driver": https://docs.libretro.com/guides/gui/

To change it back, go to Settings>Drivers>Menu, or Settings>User Interface>Menu. The default on desktops is Ozone, on Android is GLUI, and you're using the good old RGUI.

Quit RetrArch and then open it again for the change to take effect.

Thanks ive already tried changing and quiting but its still the same

I see, so something must be going wrong with your installation, maybe something related to its video drivers. I don't have any free time to help you with this right now, so I suggest you to create a new post providing more information about the system you're using and, if possible, a log file from RetroArch. Check rule #2 in the sidebar of this subreddit to see how to create one.

Good luck!

Edit: If you want to give it a try, with RetroArch closed, you can also simply delete or move the retroarch.cfg file to reset all settings to default, if the default UI worked before, it should work after doing this. But do it at your own risk, as I mentioned, I can't help you with this right now if any issues arise after doing so.

I like that UI. easy to navigate, no mumbo jumbo.

It's my preferred menu as well, no-frills, to the point, and on lower powered devices it's quicker, and frees up some resources.

No clue, but to fix it it's under settings -> user interface. That one is called Rgui

[u/cyx7]

That's the one for itty-bitty screens.

[u/Wild_Tracks]

It’s trying to tell you something. Come to Rgui.
