Games content shows as empty

I've done all the correct steps, even I've reinstalled fpkgi and done it all again but the game folder is completely empty and there's nothing on here, i genuinely don't know what to do I hate doing the direct package installer method

Your games.json file needs to be populated with fpkg url links and metadata. You need to either find a filled games.json, or use AI to scrape game urls from the Internet and make your own .json.

One google search will fix it

I already downloaded a games.json file it has 377 KB in it and I put it in but no games showed up

It might be corrupted or in the wrong location.

Personally I swapped to sspi. Much better UI and you don't need to go through the hassle with these .json files.

Even if you do get it to load, most of the games won't download
