## Information
## Information: Scraping Data Issue
We fixed several issues with downloaded scraped data not showing up in ES-DE.
For some users the scraped data was not moved correctly over to the subfolder `retrodeck/ES-DE/` in the older 0.8.X patches.
For some users the scraped data was not moved correctly over to the subfolder `retrodeck/ES-DE/` in the older 0.8.X patches (the data was still there).
We apologize for the issue and the frustration it caused and we always try our best to test various features. <br>
But the change was quite complex, and we missed a few scenarios. <br>
We are looking over our testing routines and volunteering tester program to make things even better. <br>
The team hopes eventually we have more community beta testers volunteering and we have developed some automated testing tools. <br>
If you want to help with testing contact us on [Discord](https://discord.gg/WDc5C9YWMx) or [Matrix](https://matrix.to/#/#retrodeck:matrix.org).
These issues were caused by the old manifest structure and certain Zenity prompts and the goal is to move away from Zenity in 0.9.0b.
We are making a brand new and rewritten from the ground up RetroDECK manifest in 0.9.0b (more on that in the future).

We will be moving away from Zenity and are making a brand new RetroDECK manifest in 0.9.0b (MORE ON THAT LATER).

## 0.8.X Scraping data issue
There was a scraping data issue that we tried to fix in 0.8.3b then in 0.8.4b. It affected some systems that did not move the folders like downloaded_media correctly or did not update the variables for the new data location.
### Better testing
We always try our best to test various features, but the change was quite complex, and we missed a few scenarios, and we are looking over our testing routines and volunteering tester program to make things even better. The team hopes eventually we have more community beta testers volunteering and we have developed some automated testing tools.

The 0.8.0 branch is also on the old manifest. Regarding that...

A majority of this freed space will probably be eaten up later by the new systems we will add in 0.9.0b.
- Between **350mb to 500mb** of data have been freed from the finished project to use for other activites.
- Around **500mb** of data have been freed from the finished project to use for other activites.
- That is about **1/5** of the entire application trimmed.
