Lrps2 core no longer saves to memory card in system/pcsx2/memcards

After updating to 1.22.2 I noticed that when I save in game it saves the game like usual to memory card 1. After I get done playing I’ll run the core with no game to go to the memory card browser to copy the saves to memory card 2 for backup.

But after updating to the new version, my games are no longer being saved to the memory card located at system/pcsx2/memcards. They are being saved to saves/lrps2 instead.

How can I get it back to saving to system/pcsx2/memcards?

Also how can I transfer the saves from saves/lrps2 and get them back on the memory card?

I believe that’s handled by quick menu > core options > system > shared memory cards (restart). If you set it to OFF, I think it should go back to the old behavior.

It is off. As I also thought it got on but it was off.

Okay, guess you’re just going to need to move your memcard from ‘system’ to 'saves/lrps2. It should still be using the same format with the shared memcard option enabled. ‘System’ is just a bad place for saves, in general. We try to keep them in ‘saves’ as much as possible.
