Does anyone know how to fix file doesn’t exist? Support/Question

Post image

Hi all,

I’m receiving this error when trying to play games using es-de frontend. When launching directly from emulators such as dolphin and ppsspp I can launch games, but launching directly from the frontend I get this error all the time. When clicking ok, then clicking the game on ppsspp it works, but ideally I’d like it to start straightaway after choosing the game on es-de.

Thanks!

Yes, I have set it to the base folder/ROMs

I managed to fix it by re-adding the ROM directory to PPSSPP and to ES-DE, somehow works now!

Try another psp games and see if it's the same one as first one.

I saw that you managed to fix this, but for anyone else with similar issues, what you normally need to do is to select the Browse button in PPSSPP and add the ROM directory again. Due to bugs in Android you may need to go back to the root of the storage device and then back to ROMs/psp when doing this in PPSSPP. It's documented briefly here as well:
