I've been running a retroPie install on my rPi 4 using the Argon One V2 case with ssd add on.
I learned that Emulation Station needs to shut down gracefully in order to save some changes propperly.
I also learned about the wonderful ES Generic shut down script.
So I updated the Argon One script to use the ES Shutdown script for both the shutdown and reboot commands.
I am in no way affiliated with Argon 40, I only use their cases as an end user.

Open "Terminal" in Raspbian.
-
Type the three commands below, pressing enter after each, to install
mkdir /home/pi/myRetroPieScripts && cd /home/pi/myRetroPieScriptswget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/ES-generic-shutdown/master/multi_switch.sh && chmod +x multi_switch.shcurl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pponce/ArgonOne-retroPie-Script/master/source/argon1.sh | bash -
Reboot.
| ARGON ONE (V2) PI 4 STATE | ACTION | FUNCTION |
|---|---|---|
| OFF | Short Press | Turn ON |
| ON | Long Press (>= 3 s) | Soft Shutdown and Power Cut |
| ON | Short Press (< 3 s) | Nothing |
| ON | Double Tap | Reboot |
| ON | Long Press (>= 5 s) | Forced Shutdown |
Upon installation of the Argon ONE (V2) Pi 4 script by default, the settings of the Argon ONE (V2) Pi 4 cooling system are as follows:
| CPU TEMP | FAN POWER |
|---|---|
| 55 C | 10% |
| 60 C | 55% |
| 65 C | 100% |
However, you may change or configure the FAN to your desired settings by clicking the Argon ONE (V2) Pi 4 Config icon on your Desktop.
Or via "Terminal" by typing and following the specified format:
argonone-config
To uninstall the Argon ONE (V2) Pi 4 script you may do so by clicking the Argon One (V2) Pi 4 Uninstall icon on your Desktop.
You may also remove the script via "Terminal" by typing.
argonone-uninstall
Always reboot after changing any configuration or uninstallation for the revised settings to take effect.
Thanks to Argon 40 for building these great Raspberry Pi Cases.
