### How do I update a specific emulator in RetroDECK?
You can't in a easy way do that without breaking several things. RetroDECK builds many emulators and add RetroDECK specific features on top of them and makes it into one application. That said we are looking into a custom emulator installation for those that have payed early access versions like Yuzu (that installation will still be more limited then the one we ship with RetroDECK and might have less features then normal Yuzu in term of hotkey support and other things).
