I highly recommend this utility: https://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/linkshellextension.html I have used it for a number of years. While you can create everything manually in Windows, this util makes things easy.

Would you be adverse to just creating something like a hard link or junction back to the default location? I mess around with retroarch defaults all the time and have tried this successfully.

Perhaps a strange choice, but I would pick Arkanoid or DX-Ball for the PC. I played the heck out of those and every time I happen on another variant I will play it without fail. Something about that play mechanic fits my mental grooves.

The example given does require a bit of retroarch knowledge. I didn't make it more specific because the Bezel app is used for more than just LaunchBox. As far as LaunchBox configuration using the latest Bezel app referred to in your post, you would use Tools/Manage Emulators, then select Retroarch and click on the Edit button. Find the Associated Platforms section, then the list of cores and "Extra command-line parameters. In that parameters section, use the -c option and the name of the cfg file created when the app installed the selected bezels. Look in the root Retroarch directory for a list of the cfg files available. Hope this helps. If not, give us a list of the cfg files available and a pic of the Associated Platforms panel.

Change Show inputs on Overlay to Off, then save a new config. Don't forget to overwrite the old cfg with the new one after you exit Retroarch.

You need to tell retroarch to load your config file for that core. Click on Associated Platforms and add something like this to the Extra command-line parameters: -c "config\melondsds_libretro.cfg" If your cfg file is in a different location, edit that example to match yours.

GearColeco only supports col, cv, bin, and rom extensions. Probably need to find different versions of those roms.

What does your retroarch command line look like?

Look for melonds_libretro.cfg in config and copy that to melondsds_libretro.cfg.

That is why no bezels are showing. Copy the cfg files from melonDS to your melonDS DS folder.

Works perfectly here using that core. Works fine using my normal core, desmume too. What is the directory named under config for your medondsds core cfg files? It should be "melonDS DS".

So, he has bezels showing for other platforms? If so, all I can recommend is that he compare his RetroArch installation with yours, since you are sharing files. Verify structures under config and overlays\GameBezels.

Generally, a symptom like that means there is a mismatch between the cfg file names installed under the RetroArch\config\Flycast directory and the names of the game files.
