      Looking in The wiki i found this https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Add-a-start-stop-button-to-your-recalbox-(EN)

      A really usefull guide, and at The bottom it says "exit emulator with one gpio button press"
      But when i try to enter to that page, i cant, it sends me directly to The menú and that sucks....

      Any info...please?

        @8bit_astronaut I don't know what happened with that page (there was a spanish version too).
        But the creator of that script is @Phantis, so maybe he can clear things out.

        Edit: Hmmm, can't find him anymore.

        Update: @Bug why did you erase everything? You even changed your username!

            @DjLeChuck wow, didn't know about that. Can you also access the links for the scripts itself on that page?

                    @8bit_astronaut The terrible thing is that " @Bug " @Phantiss has closed his account and delete everything without any reason! ><

                          @DjLeChuck maybe @substring has still the scripts somewhere because I kinda remember to have read in a thread he tested it

                            I would rather ask @supernature2k, as he told me he was creating his own script to do that.

                                        Does this automaticly start ES again after killing the Emulator?

                                          @sevenx no as ES is not killed when you launch an emu
