No System Data Found Error

Before someone tells me the solution, I just want to say that I've hunted around for relevant solutions and have found nothing.

Everything with PPSSPP seems normal. When I attempt to load up Mega Man Powered UP (USA), I get the following message:

" No System Data found. This game requires at least 256 KB of free space to create a System Data file. Would you like to create one now? " then it mentions auto saving.

Doesn't matter if yes or no is highlighted or if I press x or circle, the message just reappears and it seems like I'm stuck in a loop. What do I need to do here?

After confirming that message, you should get a window to save data, after successful save the game will start and the message will never show up again.

What you're describing does look exactly like common problem of people pressing wrong button for confirmation, so if you're sure you don't, it might be a problem with input, try remapping your controls making sure X and O aren't mapped to same keys and if you're using some badly supported non-pc-native gamepad(like ds4), you might want to remove all default mapping for dinput/xinput and map it again making sure you get only one input from pressing each button as I believe they by default might be using both dinput and xinput with keys swapped, so it could be pressing both X and O whenever one of those is selected.

Thanks! It turns out it was the control mapping. Everything works fine now.
