Launchbox and RetroArch on new computer

[MaineBear]

I just installed Launchbox and RetroArch on a new computer.  I copied by Launchbox files over, so when I start it all my roms show up, but without the files of course.

I can't figure out where or how to change the location of the rom files for complete systems or change the path for Retroarch.

I'm using Launchbox 13.2.

Thanks for the help!

Select the games needing moved (per platform) and Tools > File Management has a window to point them to a new root folder. For RetroArch Toos > Manage > Emulators and then pick the emulator you need to change the path to and press edit and correct the application path in the edit form.

I did that, but they all still say unavailable.  Inside the folder each rom is in a folder.  Would that make a difference?

Yeah, would make a huge difference, you'd essentially have to do it then for every file. May be faster (though more risky) to just do a string replace in your data files. Open em up in a text editor and use search and replace to replace the old path with the new one.

Perfect!!  Worked great.  Thank you!
