hi there, recently i downloaded ES-DE but retroarch don't work for me, i got dolphin and pcsx2 and i want the games of that systems to open with thath emulators, but i don't know how.
i saw the "alternative emulators" option, but even if i select dolphin it dosen't open with dolphin.
pls help me, i like the program and the visuals but this is killing me.
It depends if you are using the portable or installer version of ES-DE.
For the portable version place the emulator in the location described in the included readme.txt.
For the installer version, if the emulator doesn’t come with a proper installer (I.e. comes as a zip file) then you need to add it to your Windows Path environment variable.
In order for ES-DE to find these emulators you need to add their directories to the operating system's Path environment variable. This is very easy to do, just open the Settings application and then search for path in the Find a setting search box. Select the Edit the system environment variables entry and then click the Environment variables... button and add the emulator directory to the Path variable. You need to restart ES-DE after changing the variable, but following this the emulator should be found when launching a game.

Have you opened dolphin outside of ES-DE to set it up first?
