I've installed retroarch and can run it from the HBL but I'm finding conflicting answers on where to put these assets.
When I load retroarch it says: "Warning: Missing assets use online updater if available" or something like that. When I go to online update and press 'Update Assets' it downloads assets.zip and 2 other files to wiiu/retroarch/assets. But when I restart retroarch it doesn't bring up the xmb menu.
According to this thread (from 2016):
But according to this thread (from 2017):
I've also tried downloading the XMB files listed on this thread. They are not in a zip file but rather a bunch of folders and files.
So is it supposed to be a zip file and where should it go?

According to this thread (from 2016):
The default directory for the XMB assets is sd:/retroarch/assets, you can change it to any other path you like under Settings > Directory. Note that older versions of RetroArch WiiU use sd:/retroarch/media, so if you're playing around with old version keep an eye out for that.
But according to this thread (from 2017):
2) Add the XMB menu files to your SD (In SD:/retroarch/media/xmb/ )
