Okay, so I'm still on 1.8.9 and I haven't touched anything. I mean, I did move all of the unnecessary cores into a separate folder to speed up loading times, but I still had things working after doing that. I didn't touch any settings or anything that would have broken things. At absolute worst, I don't remember exactly but the 3DS may have had the battery die while I had RetroArch running and the system in Sleep Mode. (Meaning the 3DS was closed, but still running and RetroArch may have been on.)
As things are right now, I can launch RetroArch, but whenever I try to actually start a game, regardless of what type of game or what core I try to use, the entire 3DS crashes to the point where I get a Luma crash-handling screen and I have to restart the system. It first happened when trying to launch Mother 3 for the first time. I tried the games I had played before and gotten working, using the Genesis Plus GX core and the SNES9x 2002 core. (For some reason, it works more smoothly than the 2010 version. No idea why, though) Still crashes regardless of what content/core combination I try.
I'm not entirely sure why this is happening now, and have no idea what to do to fix it. Would deleting the retroarch.cfg file do anything in this case? If so, is there a way to do so within RetroArch, or do I have to go through the whole process of removing the SD card and doing so through my PC?
On a different note, is it worth updating to 1.9.0, and is there an easy process to do so, or do I delete all components of 1.8.9 and install 1.9.0 from scratch.
