Hello Retrobat-Team,

nice to have Commander Genius on board, with the 6.4 update. But i have a problem, this is the FAQ:

Commander Genius: No "Games"-Folder? Faq10

I have downloaded some games via CGenius (you see it on the right), and i can start and play them without problems. But there is no "Games" folder, like in your FAQ and i have no idea where he is downloading the files (but the games are working after the download). I need them, to copy them to the rom folder like in your FAQ. Btw. also couldnt find hidden folders in the directory. May be i am to stupid, but do you have an idea?

Can you open the cgenius.cfg file with a notepad and show this section ?

Here is the part:

[FileHandling]
EnableLogfile = true
SearchPath1 = ${BIN}
SearchPath2 = ./../../roms/cgenius

Commander Genius: No "Games"-Folder? Roms10

But the "Games" folder is also empty (the Tutorial said, i have to put in there the downloaded files).

The folder in roms is also (of course) empty (and no hidden files):

I have done just the standard emulator installation from inside the Retrobat menu. Its strange, because i can play the downloaded games, if i start the emulator, but cant find the downloaded files Very Happy.

No problem, i guess it's because you had never ran cgenius from retrobat with a game, so it kept the default location

I have installed Commander Genius a year ago as single emulator but uninstalled it. May be there is something left in the registry which pointed to the path. Anyway, thanks Smile.

Yes : in fact, if you have a cgenius.cfg file in my documents, it will by default prioritize this one, so you'd better delete it
