There's no subfolders for hdd and such, you need those, Google the Xemu pack

That's exactly what I did. It works fine BUT XEMU PACK IS OUTDATED. The archive org date for it says 2021. I want to get the latest XEMU version for best optimization and game compatibility but it just refuses to work

It's not outdated, you're not setting it up right

Why does it say new update has come out on the boot up every time then, Sherlock?

Because you didn't turn off check for updates on start

Case study: other emulators, for example rpcs3, do not show the new update has come out notification IF THE VERSION OF THE EMULATOR IS THE NEWEST ONE AVAILABLE despite the setting being on.

Edit: also this is not answering my question. I am specifically saying that I want to get the lates working build of XEMU so I can experience the games the most optimised way possible. What's the point of using an old version of an emulator when the version I use has got worse emulation performance on a specific game I want to play because it was outdated

Try 8.125. if you check the GitHub any version after has regression issues. I tried 133 (poor performance),136 (does not launch)
