@Robz8 Hey again the Widescreen is gone again I followed the directions on https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/TWiLightMenu/wiki/Playing-in-Widescreen not working then i delete the old TwlBg.cxi in Luma/ and then generate in TWPatch with X+Start after that went in Twilight menu ++ do setting Misc 4:3 to 9:16 widescreen then load up game stuck in 4:3 mode im still on 16.6.0 updated in November
Update TWiLight Menu++, then follow the steps again.
If that doesn't work, wait for RTCom-activated widescreen.

Hello. Thank you for developing this application. Can you please help me with this doubt I have?
I followed all the steps for installing TwiLight Menu++ on my CFW New 3DS XL. I also installed it on my DSTWO flashcart, turned SCFG access in Slot-1 on, installed the Autoboot and turned Auto-start Slot-1 on. But now when I open TwiLight Menu from the console and go to the DS menu, the icon to launch my flashcart doesn't appear anymore. Do I have to launch TwiLight menu from the flashcart? If so, would the overclock and sound improvement still work?

The icon for DSTWO flashcards doesn't always appear. If it's shown as either a glitchy icon or a "?" icon, just launch it, and it'll still work.
When launching the DSTWO normally, the overclocking won't work, but the sound improvement should still work.

RTCom (arm7<-->arm11 communications) is what'll activate widescreen per-game again. It'll not require moving the widescreen TwlBg.cxi like in previous versions.

Oh, sorry for posting that. I'm new and I was checking out how to post. I don't know how to delete it.

Does anyone know why all of my GBA games look like this?
Thanks for reading.

This looks exactly like the problem I Posted on the GBARunner2 Thread.
I'm linking just in case you don't know where the GBARunner2 Thread is:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/gbarunner2.451970/page-160#post-9292623

This is my solution to your problem:
"I found that I could remove the problem in the TWiLight Menu++ Settings.
Under the GBARunner2 Settings Tab, I turned on Centre and Mask and it removed any in-game artefacts whilst keeping the game centred with a Widescreen format.

I also found it was visually easier for me to just use the NDS version of GBARunner2, pasting it in the same folder as my NDS ROMs rather than having to navigate out of said folder to go to my GBA ROMs and then navigate back in every time."

Additionally, if you place all your GBA ROMs into a folder named GBA in your MicroSD Card's Root, GBARunner2 will automatically open that up.

Where the flashcart icon used to show it now just says: "Last-played game will appear here." I click it but it only returns me to the main menu. Do I have to change some settings in order for it to show the option to launch the flashcart?

That means the flashcard is already launched, and now you can switch between the SD and flashcard contents (See first post to know how).

That sounds like a great and thoughtful Christmas present!
Just a little note that due to how the SNES emulator works, not all games will work. Some will either not work properly, or just not work at all.

What type of DS is it? If it's a DS Phat/lite, put the ROMs in "root:/snes/".

Thanks, but no video needed.

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix the touch not working in SNEmulDS, as it works fine for me.
Make sure the SNES ROM is launched from within TWiLight Menu++, so you'll see "ROM.SMC" in SNEmulDS itself.

And there is no other emulator that I can use that works?
