Can't save state, I can only load state

[Tackskull]

It happen with all the emulators and every game

[mitu]

Get a verbose log for the emulator - as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#launch-with-verbose-logging - and post it on pastebin.com to take a look.

Also, add some details about your installation, as described in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

I don't see any attempt to save state in your log, but there's another error:

...

[INFO] Saving RAM type #0 to "/home/tackskull/RetroPie/roms/snes/1 Rom hacks da giocare/Luigi's Misadventures 2 - Leviathan's Mania.srm".
[ERROR] Failed to save SRAM.
[WARN] Attempting to recover ...
...

which might indicate a permission issue.

Does your user have write permission to the ROM's folder ?

[Tackskull]

I don't know, how do I check it?

[mitu]

Open the /home/tackskull/RetroPie/roms/snes/1 Rom hacks da giocare/ folder as tackskull user and see if you can create a file there.

I navigated with the file manager to my rom snes rom folder and I am able to create new folder and documents.... soo I supposeI have write permission on the folder

[mitu]

Can you should a screenshot with the permissions on the folder where the ROM is located ?

@Tackskull said in Can't save state, I can only load state:

AMD® A10-9620p radeon r5, 10 compute cores 4c+6g × 4

If I try to change Tackskull access files from "access files" to "create files and delete", the system get me back to "files acce", it seems I can't change Tackskull's permision to "create files and delete"

Edit: just for let you know I am running Ubuntu 20.1

I see you're running the ROM from an external disc, did you mount this manually or using the automated method ?
