Steam Sync 2.0

Steam Sync Version 2.0 is here! This is the next step in the Steam Sync function.

Backup Tool 2.0

It also introduces an optional userdata backup prompt during the post-update process.

This tool offers new backup options for core user data and full or partial backups.

New Tool: Repair Paths

This function repairs RetroDECK paths without needing a full reset.

It will automatically attempt to fix common RetroDECK paths.

If RetroDECK can't be found, it will ask the user to specify the location.

New Tool: Logging Level Changer

This tool lets you control how much information is logged in retrodeck/logs.

There are four levels:

  • Level 1: Default: Logs only important information.
  • Level 2: Warnings: Logs general warnings.
  • Level 3: Errors: Logs detailed error messages.
  • Level 4: Debug: Logs everything.

In the stable version of RetroDECK, the default is Level 1: Default.

In the unstable cooker builds, the default is Level 4: Debug.
