I'm using MAME myself; not familiar with Stella I'm afraid.

I don't actually use Stella but I do use the Stella core for Retroarch. If it helps this is what I use in my launcher:

executable = E:\Emulators\RetroArch\retroarch.exe
arguments = -L E:\Emulators\RetroArch\cores\stella_libretro.dll "%ITEM_FILEPATH%"

Have you tried running it from the command line to determine the exact command you need? I'm not familiar enough with RetroArch to know if your command is correct or not.

In the mean time, please upload your log.txt so I can take a look?

Here's the launcher I use with MAME; you may need to change the MAME path, but other than that it's functional.
