ES-DE comes preconfigured with support for many alternative emulators, see the [What's new in ES-DE v1.2](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpnMJqceSNk) video on the ES-DE YouTube channel for a brief overview of how this works. More emulators are continuously being added with each release.
## I'm using a Steam Deck and ES-DE seems to crash when I attempt to open the main menu?
You've probably mapped your _Back_ button to F4 which is the default application exit key in ES-DE. To fix this, temporarily unmap the button or plug in an external keyboard into your Steam Deck, start ES-DE, open the menu (via the _Escape_ key if using a keyboard) and find the _Exit button combo_ entry in the _Other settings_ menu. You can set this to either F4, Alt + F4 or Alt + Q.
## I'm on Windows and ES-DE can't find my emulators, what is wrong?
On Windows ES-DE is shipped as a portable installation and as a regular installer. If you're using the portable installation you need to drop your emulators inside the Emulators directory. Make sure to read the README.txt file directly in the EmulationStation-DE folder for more details. For the regular installer many emulators do not provide a method to inform ES-DE where they are installed, so you will need to add their installation directories to the Path environment variable in Windows. It's strongly recommended to read the _Specific notes for Windows_ section of the [User guide](USERGUIDE.md#specific-notes-for-windows) before attempting to setup and use ES-DE on Windows.

PICO-8 Fantasy Console is a game engine developed by [Lexaloffle Games](https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php) that you need to buy a license to use. Doing so will provide you with download links to releases for Linux, macOS and Windows. On macOS and Windows the installation is straightforward, but on Linux you need to place PICO-8 in a location recognized by ES-DE. See the [Using manually downloaded emulators on Linux](USERGUIDE-DEV.md#using-manually-downloaded-emulators-on-linux) section of this guide for more details.

After the emulator has been installed you are ready to add some games. There are two ways to play games using PICO-8, either to add them to ES-DE as for any other system, or using the built-in Splore tool to explore and run games all through the PICO-8 user interface.
