235tylerlee 1 Posted February 1, 2013 I recently changed where my games are located on my hdd so it would be easier to navigate through my hdd. Now I have like 7 game paths and it takes two times the amount of time to scan for games and I see no reason to have a game path set if there isn't even a directory for the game path to scan. I'm just wondering why I can not delete my game paths. It says deleting game data, then it will finish that and I can restart f3 and the game path I just deleted is there again.

irishdave 236 Posted February 1, 2013 I've 6 game paths, scan depth is set correctly for each one so its not scanning too deep (past the default.xex). I dont get this issue. I have hdd1/content/00000000... hdd1/Games/Homebrew hdd1/Games/Emulators hdd1/Games/XB Orginals hdd1/Games/tools (This is where i keep the likes of dashlaunch,nxe2god, etc..) and shows up in my emulators Maybe you just need to do a clean install or delete game data to start a fresh scan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
235tylerlee 1 Posted February 2, 2013 That's what I ended up doing I just hoped there would be an easier way of doing it. BTW our game paths are pretty much the same Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sxg75 3 Posted February 5, 2013 -> Irishdave: have you ever tried to delete any of your game paths ?Get some real experience about the topic before write anything ... -> 235tylerlee: I have the same problem ... the solution could be a fresh install OR the editing of the unwanted game path to show an empty, but existing directory.

JPizzle 0 Posted February 5, 2013 I just tested and it is working fine here, make sure if the drive is an external the drive is plugged into the same port as it was before and is assigned the same drive extention (USB0: USB1:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
extinction 0 Posted February 8, 2013 I have same problem here. Is an internal drive. I can create new path but cannot delete old path. So my question now is if I delete the fsd folder and installed with iso disk will it erased all these path and let me start all over again. I don't mind downloading all the cover again.

alxskater 3 Posted February 11, 2013 i Have the same problem, trying to delete a bad path. I make a path of system data to Homebreaw. And, when i tryied to delete, it was working a lot of time, and didnt erase delete the path. I Changed the path in path to another place, to uncharged the system archives, and then i can erase without any problem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JQE 0 Posted February 15, 2013 Are people deleteing the path before removing it from the path manager? If so thats likely the issue and i will check if i can fix it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've had this happen today abut after two reboots it deleted the path OK. It does take a while to complete. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shag 0 Posted September 26, 2013 This truely is a pain to do, Is there a fix for removing or editing old paths? Ive edited them and saved but F3 dosn't recognize it. Even after a manual scan. Edit: It seems that editing doesn't work on my F3Rev775. If I delete the path it will be removed, I have randomly seen the long delete times for all game save data that 235tylerlee has seen. I just use the B to back out of it and reboot. Then enter a the new path I want. Just DON'T delete your game from within the menu by pressing Y for options then delete, I lost apps that way. lol! The EDIT functionality sure would be nice if that worked correctly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
