Here's how to fix Steam Rom Manager not parsing after the latest Emudeck update. This is without any CLI knowledge, but if you know the CLI you can use sed instead of jdReplace.

Firstly, go to Discover and search for jdReplace. Install it.

Then, make a backup of ~/.config/steam-rom-manager in your home directory, just in case.

Then, open jdReplace, and click browse, and open ".config/steam-rom-manager" and under "Search for" paste:

/run/media/mmcblk0p1/

and under "Replace with", paste:

/home/deck/

Make sure "Search Subdirectories" is checked.

Now click ok.

Now open steam rom manager, it should be fixed.

If it doesn't work for you, maybe you have emudeck installed on an sd card, and maybe you should try reversing "Search for" and "Replace with".

Let me know if it fixes it for you.
