[RESOLVED] Made a change and now I'm stuck

[ClassicGMR]

So I added a game to my Atari 2600 list but I forgot and had originally set "Hide Update List" to YES and set my filter to only show ".a26" files so I needed to make a couple of simple adjustments. So I went in and set "Hide Update List" to NO and made the rom filter ".a26, .bin". Simple right? Well I realized I like to use my scrolling mouse but that changes settings if the cursor is over a setting ... so I have no clue what I changed.

Loading GameEx now makes it go directly to my Atari 7800 game list which I think is EMU_2, there's no longer a menu at the top and I cannot back out (hitting BACK loads the exact same screen). It's like Atari 7800 is all that exists and it goes right for it. I'm just hoping it's something simple I am missing and I don't have to reinstall.

Going to bump this once and see. I'm getting the feeling an .ini delete or full install is in my future. TIA.

Have you tried loading the Setup Wizard to see what populates in it? Maybe make a change, advance to the next section then go back, revert the change, then proceed forward again?

May also need to delete the cache files.

I honestly think I have gone through this line by line but I can't see anything obvious. I'm going to go full install tonight or tomorrow. My backup on the arcade cabinet is older than my grand daughter. Silly me...

 

EDIT: I was just about to wipe the files out and I noticed this little nugget below. This file is awesome! I don't know how I missed it in the directory.

It was 4 months old but everything is back the way I had it. Hopefully this helps someone in the future.

Glad you got it sorted! Now back that stuff up!
