I have spent more hours editing my games list than playing I bet. Is there a way to back the list up?

I recommend you to layout your games as a RetroX Collection, then back it up.
With a RetroX Collection you just copy one folder and RetroX will pick up all systems automatically.

Hmm. Any other options? I have my games in folders by console. All of them are on my Shield. But I have been testing them for over a year and hiding games that don’t work using the option Retrox offers. I forget the name but they are still on my Shield they just don’t show up in Retrox. It works great but if it ever resets, the full load of games will show in Retrox again. Where does the changes I make save? Is there a database file or something I can back up?

Bummer. Well there has been no problems so far. I hope it stays that way.
Any chance there can be a change made so that when you remove a game it doesn’t kick you back out to the main retrox screen? Very time consuming to have to go back in.

my personal nightmare scenario just happened. When I started up Retrox, it rescanned all of my folders while it booted up for some reason. And now 3000 games I have removed from the games list are back! Why did this happen? Is there anything at all I can do to revert back?
Help!

Remove the games from your drive and they will not be scanned / added again.

I don’t understand. I have an external HDD. Same as always. And right now retrox is showing all of the games on that drive. Please elaborate.
