      Hello! When I plug my USB stick into my pi4, hoping to generate folders for transferring ROMs, it also generates a configs folder that includes a downloaded_media subfolder. In this subfolder it copies all of my videos onto my USB stick and leaves very little space for actually transferring ROMs. Is there an easy way to prevent this from happening? I'm a total noob at this stuff, so it might help to explain to me like I'm just a little kid... thanks!

        The RetroPie usbmount scripts don't transfer ROMS if you setup the USB for ROM transfer.
        Please add more details about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first, and what is the name of the folder you created on the USB stick
