English Amiga Board - View Single Post - FS-UAE: strangeness with an whdload install

Hi, FS-UAE does not use the same mechanism as WinUAE for storing Amiga file names and metadata, but it is possible that there is a bug when _UAEFSDB.___ is present which causes FS-UAE to not initialize file permissions.

The file _UAEFSDB.___ is probably created when the game is installed by WinUAE, and you could try to just delete this file before starting FS-UAE. -And I will check later whether there is a bug related to the presence of _UAEFSDB.___.
