Before, Gamr13's Retroarch folder had a different name. I reset the console but the folder was still there, so I erased it. The old name had the name "Retroarch" in it and the new name of the folder doesn't so it's more difficult to find: LOCALFOLDER/35009Gamr13420.21906F4AA47FA_4q3rqxafkngny/

Because I erased the app, the old folder and reset the console, I thought that everything would work. I know that the path of the games is not the problem because I used the browse option and found the games, so I don't know what's wrong. Every time I load a Wii or GameCube game, the app crashes. It used to work some months ago, actually, these games run at full speed now but did not when the app was released for Xbox. Only old games work now (SNES, MD, N64...).


If you mean PS2, I have a few ROMs. At least, one of them works fine because I beat the game on PC.
Anyone can help with this? I don't mind doing a clean install on Series X if I read the steps detailed from someone that has GameCube and Wii games working fine on Retroarch or Retroarch Lite on Series S/X. In the description, Lite is described as a version that only has options supported by Series S/X and I have tried both apps. I have tried everything, including resetting the console and erasing the old folders on my own several times and it doesn't work.

I don't know about gamr's app, but because the apps are taken down in less than 24 hours, he only uploads them again every Sunday. if you go to his discord, you can see when it's back online. I think it's around 11 or 12 noon cst on Sundays.
This time there's only the appstore
Gotta love sarcastic people who pretend finding their retroarch from the site

it's been just the app store for a while. if you had an earlier one, you need to download the new one as xbsx2, the ps2 emulator, and retroarch lite, which I recommend over retroarch full, or else they won't be present. not even sure if the older one works anymore.

Did you change any directories from default?

you shouldn't need to download cores iirc, so you may have to reinstall. I don't know if a restore to default settings will help, but you could try it first.
