I was able to fix giving admin rights to RetroFE. Now the program can access the emulators correctly. Thank you.

I don't have a Xbox One controller but I do have an Xbox 360 controller. For that you use
up = joyXHat0Up
down = joyXHat0Down
left = joyXHat0Left
right = joyXHat0Right
where X is the joypad number. If this is the only one plugged in then this will be 0.
To get the button numbers for the rest of the controls go to the Windows Control Panel -> Devices and Printers. Right click the Xbox controller icon, select 'Game Controller Settings'. In the 'Game Controllers' window highlight the Xbox controller then click properties.
A window will open up with all the Xbox controller pad and button settings. When you press a button on the controller, the button number should light up red inside the settings window. On the 360 controller button A=1.
In the controls config file for RetroFE minus 1 off that number.
So if you want Button A to be 'Select' then use:-
select = joyXButton0
Again, where X is the joypad number. If this is the only one plugged in then this will be 0.
I hope this helps, I think I have confused myself!
Ok. Thank you.
The only collection that works is the Sega Genesis, which already comes with a game.
EDIT: I'm getting it fixed, now I'm trying to link the Roms to the emulators.
A doubt, in the games part, how I edit that part where it places the category, number of players, etc. Thanks.
This issue deserves its own thread next time; it's not very theme related. I will answer your questions though:
- If RetroFE closes unexpectedly, you can usually find the reason in the log.txt file. It's more often than not an incorrectly defined collection, though I really should consider not crashing on them.
- If you add new information to the XML files, you need to remove meta.db so RetroFE can add the information. I still plan on adding an automatic date check so RetroFE can do that by itself, but for now you'll have to delete it manually.
