      @Arctic452910 compare the extensions. What are the extensions of the files that work? What is the extension of the files that do not?

        I'm not sure what you mean by extensions. I'm mostly new to this stuff

              @phillip_benoit there is a 7z beside the ones that don't work. There is a zip or nds beside the ones that do work.

                  @Arctic452910 7z is a type of compressed file that may not be compatible with your emulator. You'll either need to convert it to a zip file or uncompess it for the nds file inside.

                      this:
                      https://cloudconvert.com/7z-to-zip

                      or this:
                      https://gcore.com/learning/how-to-extract-7z-files-linux/

                      remembering that Raspbian is a Debian derivative.
