      My roms work fine on my raspberry pi 3 but when I connect the usb over to my laptop the folder appears empty even though they are there :/
      It's annoying more than anything but just wondering if anyone can help me show them if they experienced it?
      It's only the snes rom folder that is empty my nes and gba appear fine on desktop

        @gtr63 Maybe they aren't on the USB? Are you running ROMs from the USB? Maybe the SNES ROMs got transferred to the SD card? Have you checked what is on the SD card when the USB is unplugged from the PI?

          @jonnykesh yeah your right. It must be transferring over to the micro sd card but I never noticed until now......I guess it still works but I'm really confused.
          I was sure they were running off my usb by default

            @gtr63 Maybe you set SNES up first to test before setting up the whole USB mounting thing. It's easy to forget what exactly you did when first setting up, especially if you are not experienced with RetroPie or Linux.
