Emulation Station on win10 not working after moving to external hardrive
-
Hey guys, I recently tinkered with emulation station on my windows 10 computer and got it to run with some nes games using retroarch. I was using my internal hard drive at the time. Then I realized that my storage was running low so I deciding to simply just move the .emulationstation folder to the external hardrive. Then just change the paths for the es_systems config file. Keep in mind my roms and retroarch are all stored in .emulationstation with their own files. But when I went to boot it up it just gave me an error saying oh "your systems folder is not setup you will have to do this by hand unfortunately". I tried double checking the cfg file but everything looked fine. The tutorial I used is here.
The the guy who did this tutorial also supplied a es_systems file to replace the one in .emulationstation. Then just change the paths on his cfg file he provided to where my roms and retroarch file is. They are both in my .emulationstation folder so easy enough. But I did all that which is pretty much identical to what I did when I was trying to get it to work in my internal storage just different paths in the es_systems file. I recommend you watch his video before you help me just to get a better understanding. Oh and here is my config file.

And everytime I open emulation station 2 see if it works after my tinkering it adds another .emulationstation file to the exact same place I had it when I was using it in my internal storage. In more detail my C:\Users\izaya.emulationstation. Even though I have one I moved from my internal storage in my E:.emulationstation already. I is odd. I would really love the help.
(E is my external drive C is my internal. And izaya is my username for windows.)
-
At first look, your paths look wrong
<path>E:.emulationstation\Retroarch\roms\zxspectrum</path>is not a valid Win32 path, it should be something like
<path>E:\.emulationstation\Retroarch\roms\zxspectrum</path>and the same for the
<command>paths. -
You should use pastebin for sharing your configs, error logs etc.
-
Ok I think I fixed it.

Oh I think that might be a problem copying the script to the forum I don't know why the slash is not showing up here. But I can assure you I have those / on my script.
-
You should use pastebin.com for large walls of text, it doesn't modify the formatting and it's easier to inspect.
-
This might be a dumb question but how do get it on to the forum now that I pasted it onto pastebin.
-
@COMMANDERY11 You should post the URL you get after posting on the site. But if you're problem is solved, there's no need for it.
-
Okay sadly It has not been fixed yet. https://pastebin.com/LecC53XE
I think I fixed the paths now though. Just so you know when I go onto file manger. To get to my .emulationstation I go to...
E:.emulationstation
Then to get to my roms
E:.emulationstation\roms
and lastly my Retroarch folder
E:.emulationstation\Retroarch -
How are you starting Emulationstation ? Do you use a
.cmd/.batfile ? What version of Emulationstation are you using ? -
I downloaded the installer on the official websites.
-
Try copying your
es_systems.cfgback to the original location. -
Ok I copied it back into my C:\Users\izaya
That is where my .emulationstation would be
-
@COMMANDERY11 so, does it work ? If not, try copying it to
C:\Users\izaya\.emulationstation. -
It does not work... Or you think I should put my .emulationstation back where it is supposed to be in my C:\Users\izaya location and leave my roms in the E: drive since downloading roms decreased my storage in my original drive and just change the paths on the cfg file you think that will work?
-
@COMMANDERY11 Sure, that should work.
-
IT WORKED! Sorry for wasting your time bro. :(
