Nice !! I changed "GamesIn7Zips=True" to "False" and my games are now listed I guess this "problem" was caused by myself and a mix between extensions (*.smc or whatever) and this setting, this was not a bug... Thank you very much and thanks to everyone who contributed for my rescue ! I still dont know why they showed up before and not afterwards but I guess it must be from me... must have forgotten something at that time, I think I was not that sober ^^ [sOLVED] as we say Thanks again.

Well that was fast, thanks. I deleted *.*cache in the DATA folder but it didn't solve the problem. I attached the INI file and am trying to find any issue in it at the same time, it may prove easier than in the config utility. Thanks again Edit: Well the file shows: RomPath=Y:\Emulateurs\ROMs\Nintendo SNES\Roms Let's give it a try: Le volume dans le lecteur Y s'appelle BigFat Le numéro de série du volume est B284-839E Répertoire de Y:\Emulateurs\ROMs\Nintendo SNES\Roms 07/05/2011 07:01 <REP> . 07/05/2011 07:01 <REP> ..

(SOLVED) Hi everybody, I just bought the registered GameEx and really think it will work great for what I want but I just created a slight problem: I had all my SNES games listed on the first GameEx run but after that, I exited GameEx, rename de "Roms" folder to "Archives", then created an empty "Roms" folder and though only a dozen roms in it. Since then, when I launch GameEx, it says I dont have any SNES game. I checked the path, but a simple copy/paste from the configuration to Explorer shows the path is correct and my smc files are there. I then tried to rollback my action by deleting the newly created "Roms" folder and renaming "Archives" to "Roms" but still I cant list any SNES game, whereas games for other problems show without a problem. Thanks for yor help !
