clrmame Discussion / lossing existed Roms during "new scan"
« on: 07 December 2021, 11:42 »
This happens several times, and I suspect there is a bug in the scanner which misinterprets the same rom name of different systems as unneeded.

I have a complete arcade rom collection 0.238.
Now trying to incorporate SL chds into the collection with one single profile.

The system PATHs are individually defined.

The "new scan" function in "scanner" asks permission to remove unneeded files in the "fix unneeded file" window.
After the scanning, the report shows that my complete arcade collection turns into an incomplete one, in which thousands of ROMs are reported as missed.

Some of them can be found in the backup folder.
Some of them gone forever.

This is not the first time I bumped into this problem.
At first, I thought that was my misconfiguration.
Now I can replicate the problem by adding SL (MESS) CHDs into the corresponding software folder and do a new scan.

enclosing my cmp file FYI.
