          Something that can fix the permissions on .LHA files for Amiberry/WHDLoad would be of great benefit.

          Currently running:
          Retropie 4.8.9 on a Pi Zero 2W (Overclock Settings: CPU 1400Mhz)
          ES-DE on a GMKtec K6 (Windows 11, 32GB RAM)

            can you give more information regarding this what type of files and what permission it has and what needs doing more detailed information will be great.

                1: Rom tester, test all runs on autopilot its 100% accurate, then all roms testers.checks roms using retroarch.exe if rom is bad, then sending it to bad folder for later test and send good roms to fixed folder.this way you know that all roms you have are working not like most testers I have used 1 or 2 or more be broken very disappointing results.
                [...]

                As you've been repeatedly told, and also outlined in the Arcade games of the Docs, that's not the way to run arcade ROMs. Use a ROM management utility and make sure you use the right ROMs for your emulator, not the other way around.

                  @jodiefoster They're the .LHA format files that WHDLoad format Amiga games come in. Having given this a little thought I think I can do this as a script that would do the job just as well.
