Need help with new problem

RetroArch Windows devices

Hi All,

So, this problem started on its own, can’t figure out what I did. I’m using an Xbox 360 wireless controller. Mapped all the buttons, hotkey enabled to the Select button, etc. The problem occurs when I try to save a state, which is Select-R1 for me. I get a series of notifications in the bottom left that in order are:

Waiting for client

You have joined as Player 1

Port Mapping successful

then it shows my WAN IP

At this point, it goes to the quick menu (which I set as L3-R3) and then freezes, no controls work other than Select-Start which exits me. Sometimes it returns to the game but it has a start/play icon in the upper right that doesn’t do anything, I’m frozen and can only exit out.

I looked all through my settings, can’t figure out what is causing this…any ideas?

Thanks.

this is a weird mystery-problem that seems to have a few different possible causes. Some people report fixing it by turning off external gamepad mapping software, like Steam, someone else reported that it occurs 100% of the time when Windows Explorer process isn’t running.

I’m sorry I can’t provide my information on it.
