Migrate custom scrape data
-
Hello everyone!
I'm currently trying to switch to a fresh RetroPie 4.5.1 because my old one is giving me a few issues. However I spent so many hours customizing every single box art and game description, is there any way that I can migrate the data on the new RetroPie?
Thank you very much :-) -
Backup your data - see Option 2 of how you can backup - and re-install.
Scraped data is kept in one of these places:
- the ROMs folder (if you've used an external scraper).
- the
\\retropie\configs\emulationstations\downloaded_imagesfolder, if you've used only the EmulationStation internal scraper(s).
So if you take the advice in the docs and back-up your ROMs and configs folders, you should be able to keep your games and scraped data.
