Hi @Kenny,

If you need further help with your new question, since it is not related to the main topic above, it’s best to open up a new topic so it can be kept separate from the existing discussion that was here :slight_smile:

Hi Kenny
I run Sonic Pi automatically on a Raspberry Pi with the latest Raspberry Pi OS with the following.
In a terminal type

#check autostart folder exists and create if not
mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart
#copy Sonic Pi desktop file to the autostart folder  
cp /usr/share/applications/sonic-pi.desktop ~/.config/autostart/.

If you then restart your Pi it will automatically start Sonic Pi when the System boots up.

To reverse the process use

rm ~/.config/autostart/sonic-pi.desktop
