@Myshy I banged my head against the wall for a while trying to figure this out and your procedure worked perfectly. I just want to say thank you for taking the time to document and share this!

RE: Hiding consoles by deleting roms not working
I did some further testing and the trick for me was simply to delete everything within each of the individual ROM folders for each system (SNES, N64, etc.). I elected to leave the readme.txt file for future reference.
On my next boot, I only saw the games for which I had ROMs store on the Pi.
I'm not sure why you were getting an error message about read-only access though - I would start by troubleshooting that because I had no issues deleting files/folders.
Hope that helps!

RE: Hiding consoles by deleting roms not working
@Sardu same exact problem here. I’ve fought through a number of issues getting Recalbox setup on my Raspberry Pi 4 and this is the last thing that I haven’t quite figured out yet.
I would expect the “update games list” to permanently update the DB that stores this information, but it constantly gets reset when I reboot.
If I find a solution to this I’ll be sure to post it here.
