Woah! That's a lot of games! XD

Looking in the list file...

Try removing the game: SAN FRANCISCO RUSH 2049

And if it works without this game, let me know where to download the same version so I can see why it bugs the menu. (send me link via PM)

Request:
Write out the LIST.INI file as LIST.INI.TXT to the root directory of the SD Card when a SAVE is done, so we have a single text file to open and see what titles are on the card.

Hey there, so I've been trying to use this program but I can't seem to get my SD card to appear. I've formatted it to FAT32 and put the GDmenu content in it already, but it refuses to show. It's a SanDisk 200GB microSD, running on Windows 11 btw.

Hi. I will try to get an windows 11 machine to test it.
Meanwhile there's an advanced feature you can try:
With the app closed, edit the .config file on a text editor (notepad, notepad++)

Code: Select all

<add key="ShowAllDrives" value="False" />
Change the value to True. Save and open the app.
It should list all the drives avaiable on your computer.
Use with caution as it can delete folders from your pc if you select the wrong drive inside the app.

Maybe I missed it somewhere but i keep getting "Ignored Files / Folders" messages and cant load certain games into the Card Manager. Not detecting any patterns but its happened with Chu Chu Rocket and Gauntlet Legends. Are there just some games that dont work? Or could I just be using some bad cdi files?

Probably bad files. Try to use TOSEC GDI releases (or the optmized ones from the download section).
Also make sure you have the latest version of the app.
If it's a homebrew game that's only available in CDI format then I can take a look for a possible fix. Let me know.

Got it working?
I tested today on a windows 11 pc and it detected the SD card perfectly.
