@mortalwombat said in Anyway to copy ROMs btwn folders on (or from) your MicroSD?:

Anything this might mean? It wouldn't have to do with which romset they belong to, or which default emulator they've been set to?

It doesn't mean anything related to the emulator/romset the files are associated with. It's just coloring based on the file type and the file's attribute (executable). Same colors you see when your run the ls --color command to list a folder.

Have fun with Retropie. :)

@Efriim Then the problem is the Samba share and not the Pi. Restart Samba after you the USB is mounted and then re-try to copy the file to the share.

Thanks for the reply. Thats great news because i already bought the items with it in mind. Cheers!

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I have decided to go with the 128gb Samsung.

@wcarvalho said in Newest RetroPie Version Does Not Work With EazyHax Toolkit Expand to External NTFS Drive Script (Compiled from Source & Official 4.3 Image):

I also had the same problem, these scripts simply do not work on the new image (4.3). But I found a solution is not one of the simplest but solves it. I have downloaded an old version of the retropie (4.2), I make the whole installation, active the use of external hard drive, and update the system to version 4.3, so I can continue using my games through HD

Clever solution :-)
My pi blew up some time back....the 4R7 inductor broke and it would no longer boot up. With Hurricane Harvey (I live in Houston) all of my side projects went to the wayside. I just finally got around to fixing it (made a video) yesterday and now am discovering a lot of changes to the new version of retropie broke some of the more complex tools in the toolkit. I'll get them all sorted asap...as well as deploy some new ones.
I have fixed the Expand to external drive thus far....still finding changes to the backend...still testing.
Thanks for your support!

Yeah that was one. I had a hard time following it and when I thought I had it, it didn't work. I also tried the GitHub guide that told me to basically do the same thing but the strings it had me add to fstab were a little different from the first guide. Couldn't get that to work either.

@TMNTturtlguy I am using a Sandisk 32 gb ultra, bought in the store. And I was trying to write my image back to this same card after a full format (first I wipe the Linus partition with a quick format in my Sony camera, then I do a full (overwrite) format , with 'format size adjustment' to On in sdformatter). It's really odd but there are more reports about this issue.
rpi-clone is a better alternative imo if you want to use the same size card (or smaller) for a back up

@Rion You can still view files separately in their original folders.

Try following this guide here to mount your drive.

That should solve most of your problems.
