RetroArch Import Cores & Save Files
Cores
Just go to the path:
- Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\RetroArch\cores and there you’ll find the cores that you’ll have to copy/cut and paste in Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RetroArch\cores.
Save Files
Go to the path Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\RetroArch\saves there you’ll find all your save files for all the games you’ve played for all the cores. Copy/cut and paste them to Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RetroArch\saves.
Notes
Obviously you need to replace “YOUR_USERNAME” for your PC username in the paths.
You can do the same for many other kind archives and folders between the paths Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\RetroArch and Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RetroArch.
This is not an answer to the question “where to download retroarch cores”. I specifically am looking to download VICE which for some reason is not included in the retroarch installation
this does not work as there is no retroarch folder in appdata/roaming
