RPCS3 - emulator does not work - May 7th, 2023

The update May 7th update of the RPCS3 Flatpak did not behave as expected due to a missing dependency. If you have not recently updated RPCS3 and the emulator no longer launches, you will need to open Discover in Desktop Mode and update RPCS3.

There are no currently known issues with the latest version of RPCS3.


RetroArch does not work anymore - April 30th, 2023

If you recently updated from an older version of RetroArch and you notice your games are suddenly not working, you will need to check Discover for any system updates. Updating RetroArch on its own is not enough and will prevent it from working.

After you have updated any pending system library updates in Discover, RetroArch will work again.

  1. In Desktop Mode, open Discover (shopping bag icon)
  2. Click Update (x) in the bottom left
    • There will usually be a number in the ()
  3. Click Update All in the top right
  4. Wait, once the updates are finished, test RetroArch again
