*Update RetroPie-Setup Script: The very first thing you’ll want to do before you do anything is select this and will be update the latest changes to the setup script.
*Binary Based Installation: If you wish to do a full update of RetroPie, this is the option you should choose. a backup is highly recommended before choosing this option
*Source-based installation: very rarely if ever should you use this as it takes more than 24 hours to run and likely will end up with some broken non-working emulators due to unfixed bugs
*Setup / Configuration: this is where you can update configurations, install new themes, controller drivers, etc. many of these options are also on the retropie menu in emulationstation
*Experimental Packages: these are emulators and options that may be potentially unstable but are worth checking out if you are feeling ambitious
*Install Individual Emulators from Binary or Source: This is where you will update individual emulators- you will almost always update from binary as they are more frequently updated, have less bugs, and are much quicker to install. There will be rare occasions where you may need to update from source but when in doubt just choose binary and you should be fine.
Latest SD image
If you are worried about conflicts during an update you can always just start with the latest fresh sd image which can be downloaded here and just copy all your files back over onto that instead of updating from an older image.
