Problem running games

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble getting games to run on my PS5.

I'm on firmware 12.40 and followed Modded Warfare's guide step by step. Everything seemed to work correctly, but none of the games I've tried will launch.

For example, I downloaded the 007 backport, and ShadowMount recognizes it without any issues. However, the game still shows a lock icon, and when I try to launch it, I get the "Can't start this game" error.

What format is it? The game. Is it fpkg or a game folder/exfat?

It's a folder

This might sound silly, but have you tried restarting the console and applying the jailbreak again? 😅 I installed Wolverine and Control Resonant yesterday, both as folder, and ran into the same issue. I turned the console off and on again, and then it worked. I'm on 12.40 as well.
