[Solved] Save/Backup PPSSPP Settings
#1
I'm not sure if I should post this right here so please kindly move it to the right place if it's not.
So here's my question: Is there a single (or maybe multiple) file(s) that contains all the program's settings? I recently ran into a problem when I used Windows Disk Cleanup. It deleted all my saves even my settings (keyboard mappings, sounds, graphics, cheats, everything). If so, where can I find it? I don't want to backup the whole PPSSPP folder. The memstick's size bloats up. My memstick folder ate up 527MB of disk space. Thanks in advance.

Settings are stored in 2 files located in your_PPSSPP_folder\memstick\PSP\SYSTEM Smile

Ow, cool. Folder is not even 5 KB! Thanks much. BTW, if I set the files' attributes to read-only + system, will it NOT be modified even by PPSSPP? (Of course I have to try it myself but since I'm already here. heheh!)

Why do you want to do this ? You shouldn't change the permissions of these files, PPSSPP often needs to modify them...

okay, okay. just one more thing... 1) I copied those two files to a different directory. 2)Changed some setting on the program. Errmm... Unchecked "Prevent FPS from exceeding 60..." 3)Closed the program. 4)Pasted the copied files to the original PPSSPP directory. 5)Relaunch the program. 6)Checked settings. But the "Prevent FPS..." is still unchecked. Am I missing something?

That's normal, PPSSPP only sees the settings if the corresponding files are in the folder I told you sooner.
If PPSSPP doesn't find the files, it creates new ones, which contain default settings, of course Smile

Then I guess I should never touch that darned Disk Cleanup (maybe just for my case). Thanks a lot. Rep Up!!! Smile
