how to get gameex evolution to see added roms

[Tonycubed2]

Hi,

I started with about 2000 zipped rom files, added today about 6000 more.  But my game count in gaemeex evolution is the same!!  What am i doing wrong?

I tried moving the files in :  E:\GameEx Evolution\UserData\Cache\Data  and the program recreated them, but count is the same.  

I tried in setup wizard to audit roms, no difference.

Any help appreciated.

I included a copy of log files.

Edit: I  have found that if I uninstall gameex and delete all its folders, and reinstall, that it sees the new roms. But that is not efficient, obviously. Hoping for a better way?

 

edit: I meant to post this in GameEx Evolution / General  if someone can move it?

I primarily support GameEx, AE, and PinballX, so won't be of much help to you here.

I am sure that there is a way to update things that I'm not aware of and someone will assist with an answer.

Thanks. It’s curious. GameEx has the update option, but not evolution. I will patiently wait for a nudge in the right direction. I suspect a few data files need deleting. Let’s see.

There is an option in the Setup Wizard - Audit Roms.

The two front ends may look similar in some respects, but they are entirely different beasts.

What exactly did it do?  I can't honestly say I've ever had a need to update the set in EVO, so I don't have any experience with this feature.

If audit roms did not work, could it be a permission issue?
