My title is literally as descriptive as I can be, PPSSPP simply will not open. I'm not getting a crash, no error message, nothing, but the program just won't open. It's sitting there in processes in my task manager not doing anything, and if I try to open it again another copy will just be sitting there still not doing anything.

On windows 10, most recent version, 64x, DX12, all drivers and everything up to date. I've tried opening both 32 and 64 versions and neither gets a different result. I've tried opening ROMs with it and it's just like if I tried opening the program from the exe, nothing.

I'm trying to make a community patch for Armored Core Last Raven Portable (either in the form of an ISO or a CWcheats patch) that changes some of the stats of various parts to balance the game better.

I have tried using cheat engine to search the game data and have been completely unsuccessful in making a single cheat that does anything (including crashing the game! Nothing. No cheats I make have any effect.)

So next, I tried to see if I can edit the game ISO directly by unpacking the ISO and viewing the binaries. But it's just a wall of nonsense in both hex and binary.

What encryption or encoding do PSP games use, for developers to modify them? If I want to patch an ISO or make changes to a game, how do I de-encrypt a game file to modify the .BIN files?

I'm playing MHFU and would like to convert my save to MHP2G so that I can later on import it to MHP3 when I finish the previous generation. I've tried renaming the save file as stated in other similar threads since they said it worked for them. Didnt work for me though. Can anyone tell me how they did it? Your help is very much appreciated! Thanks.

When playing with buffered rendering the fighters have like a dark tone and the stage floor has a glitch texture, but if you play with skipped buffer rendering everything looks great until you transform and a black ring appears on the screen.

So I had ppsspp on my Samsung A5 2016 and a lot of games run very smoothly but those same games don't run on my MSI gaming laptop. Why would this be?

I've been playing persona 3 portable but when I load my game it didn't save from before. Also when I record with OBS I record my voice separately on audacity. however the audio from one is always out of synch with the other and I don't know why. It might be unrelated.

Whenever I host using the built-in adhoc server with my own ip using Tuungle, I am able to connect to the online GH without problems but my friends receive a message saying "A communications error has occured" Our firewalls are not blocking Tuungle or ppsspp so is this a client side issue?

Hello everyone!
I don't know if I should post this here, I'm sorry if this is not the right place. Also, I'm not a native English speaker, I apologize if there are any mistakes.

I downloaded the ISO file of Dissidia Final Fantasy. It works fine until I'm done putting the nickname, choosing the difficulty and the day of the week I play the most, then it goes to white screen for a moment and it crashes, with a window saying that PPSSPP stopped working. I also tried to download another ISO from another website (maybe the first one was corrupted), but it still doesn't work.
Any suggestions?

Hello! This is actually going to be my first post here. I actually need some help because my mac laptop was factory reset recently and so all the data has been wiped from it. However, I have a backup saved onto a time machine that should let me recover the save files I lost on the emulator. The BAD thing is that I have no idea where the save files are and I can't simply backup my computer completely because apparently something in the backup is so incompatible with my mac that it won't start if I do that.
I apologize for this but I SERIOUSLY don't feel like playing through half of Persona 3 and like nearly all of my other games again.
