# emudeck-config-helper

Enable only specific parsers in Steam ROM Manager to avoid getting duplicate non-Steam game shortcuts. Useful to run after an update which automatically re-enables all parsers.

Currently only the Steam Deck is supported.

## Usage Instructions

1. In File Manager, browse to the `userConfigurations.json` Steam ROM Manager configuration file. On Steam Deck, this is in the `/home/deck/.config/steam-rom-manager/userData` folder.

2. In the same folder, create a new file called `enabledParsers.json`. Populate it with a list of parser names that you want to be enabled. The remaining parsers that are not included in this list will be disabled. For example:

```

[

  "EmulationStationDE",

  "Arcade - MAME (standalone)",

  "Microsoft Xbox 360 - Xenia",

  "Nintendo 64 - Retroarch - Mupen64Plus Next",

  "Nintendo GameBoy - Retroarch - Gambatte",

  "Nintendo GameBoy Color - Retroarch - Gambatte",

  "Nintendo GameBoy Advance - Retroarch - mGBA",

  "Nintendo GameCube - Dolphin",

  "Nintendo NES - Retroarch - Mesen",

  "Nintendo SNES WideScreen - Retroarch - Snes9x",

  "Nintendo Switch - Yuzu",

  "Nintendo Wii - Dolphin",

  "Nintendo WiiU - Cemu (.rpx)",

  "PrimeHack",

  "Sony PlayStation - DuckStation",

  "Sony PlayStation 2 - PCSX2",

  "Sony PlayStation 3 - RPCS3 (Extracted ISO/PSN)",

  "Sony PlayStation Portable - Retroarch - PPSSPP"

]

```

3. Download the latest release and extract it to anywhere on the Steam Deck.

4. Mark the `emudeck-config-helper` file as executable: Right-click > Properties > Permissions > Check the 'Is executable' checkbox > OK

5. Double-click the `emudeck-config-helper` file to run. Feel free to create a desktop shortcut for it if you prefer.
