Every time i go back into dev mode from retail mode, retroarch and other apps don’t want to run and crash on startup and when retroarch decides to run, it can’t read any of the cores or games. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks for compiling! Any speedup tweaks for Dolphin? Or anything else for the emus? Still on 1.7.something and things run pretty okay but just wondering if we've optimized further! Thanks!

Gonna upload this one now!
not that i know of and as far as i know the xbox one dev mode wont let you change a app to game due to a bug i assume so its best to stay where your at

I had a similar problem where i couldn't change from App to Game from the xbox dev options but instead i went to "Xbox device Portal" and from there i set all apps to run as game as default setting

microsoft seemed to f up dev mode in regard to apps not functioning after a reboot

its not retroarch

gotta wait for a system update hopefully
 
I had to uninstall all apps and reinstall them to get them to work again which is annoying because I honestly haven’t figured out where retroarch saves my game saves, anyone know what file they save to for I can start backing them up? Also I realized the other day you can just swap out the app file in retroarch’s main file in dev mode to the newest version without always having to install the newest compile. To do this you basically just need to unzip the most recent appx package from libretro then toss it into the dev tools folder of your installed app on the Xbox. If further directions are needed I’ll type up a better explanation. I think cores can be updated this way also but haven’t tested.

And after a restart in dev mod,all is ok?
 
Same issue on my xbox one s. Whenever I restart my console in dev mode, retroarch not loading (tried 1.8.1, 1.7.7 etc. When I unisntall retroarch and reinstall it works until restart. Hope to see a solution

You can ask Ploggy, he was one of the first to test it.
