Advanced Hints

This is NOT recommended !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only experienced users should run multiple instances.
Set the registrykey "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ClrMamePro\Settings\AllowRestart" to "1".

 

Simply organize your datfiles in subfolders of the ClrMamePro "datfiles" folder. If you move active datfiles (datfiles with corresponding settingsfiles) you have to create that subfolder structure in the settingsfolder as well. So when you have:

datfiles\good\good2600.dat
datfiles\tosec\c64tapes.dat

as active dats you should be sure to have:

settings\good\good2600.cmp
settings\tosec\c64tapes.cmp

Note: You have to move the *.cmp by hand, ONLY if you reorganize an already existing *.dat and *.cmp structure. When you use new datfiles you can put them wherever you want to. ClrMamePro will automatically create the correct folderstructre in the settingsfolder. Same for updating old datfiles. The new ones will be automatically moved to the old position.

New and unused DatFiles are always listed in the 'Not Used / New DatFiles' folder ! Even if they are physically stored in a datfiles subfolder ! As soon as they are activated (default options or update), they will be shown in the correct subfolder !
