* Duplicate ScreenScraper game entries could show up in the interactive scraper if multiple platforms were defined for the system
* ScreenScraper API calls were slightly malformed for systems where multiple platforms were defined

The .emulationstation directory is normally located in your home directory, but on these Unix-based operating systems files and directories starting with a dot are hidden by default. So you need to enable hidden files and directories in your file manager. On macOS this is done in Finder using the Shift + Command + . (a dot) keyboard combination. On Linux it depends on which file manager you're using, but in Dolphin it's accomplished by using the Alt + . (a dot) keyboard combination or via the corresponding entry in the hamburger menu.
## I can't find a ROM directory setting in the user interface, so how do I relocate my games?
There is no need for such a setting as ES-DE will not start unless it finds at least one game. So you simply need to move your ROM directory to its new location using your operating system's file manager or terminal and then the next time you start ES-DE you will be shown a dialog where you can enter the new directory. Optionally you can manually change the ROMDirectory setting in ~/.emulationstation/es_settings.xml
## What are miximages precisely and why don't they get updated when I change my miximage settings?
As the name implies these are images, and more specifically they are generated by ES-DE from scraped or manually downloaded media. Depending on what is available for a certain game the miximage is built from a combination of a screenshot, marquee, 3D box (or box cover as fallback) and physical media. If no screenshot is available then no miximage will be created, all other image types are optional. By default miximages are generated when scraping, but it's also possible to update them using the built-in offline generator. This tool can be found at the bottom of the _Miximage Settings_ menu. So after changing any miximage settings, either rescrape or run the offline generator and your miximages will be updated accordingly. More details about this topic can be found in the _Miximage Settings_ section of the [User guide](https://gitlab.com/es-de/emulationstation-de/-/blob/master/USERGUIDE.md#miximage-settings).
