This update brings the emulator tools into ROMarr and makes the setup easier to follow.
- Find 1,214 emulator, fork and companion-tool entries in Hub → Emulators, including Eden, Ryubing, Lichii, Eglantine and AnyPS5. Free and noncommercial options have their own license notes.
- Browse all 350 RetroArch core records, install a matching host core, check missing firmware filenames and prepare separate configuration/save folders.
- Find the 58 browser, source and preservation resources from the supplied list in a separate directory. Unverified links are clearly marked.
- Switch and Switch 2 NUP imports, standalone MDM download clients and the built-in NZB client are included.
- General Settings now follows saved qBittorrent clients. Optional import scanners handle complete private disc snapshots; failed core updates preserve the working installation.
For Windows, use the portable ZIP below and open ROMarr.exe. It includes its Python backend and ROM Hub. The MSIX is unsigned and intended for packaging/testing; Store publication still needs the registered publisher identity and signing.
For Docker, pull the updated image and recreate the container. For a source installation, pull main and restart ROMarr.

The feature build passed 3,583 tests, both Docker builds and the native Windows executable checks. Real browser checks installed official melonDS and the 2048 libretro core; RetroArch ran 2048 for 120 headless frames. The live ROMarr API also passed catalog, core-install, firmware and configuration checks.
Experimental projects remain experimental. A listing does not mean every game works, and firmware checks report file presence rather than validate a dump. Please update and report anything that still fails, with your operating system, emulator/core, game format and the error shown.
