Let me preface this by saying I already googled and tried most of the solutions for this, and it didn't work.
Over 2 years ago I got dolphin and played Paper Mario. Left it incomplete, very close to the end of the story.
Fast forward to today where I got the urge to play again. My old save file is there, but I create a new save file to re-habituate myself to the game before jumping into endgame. I save and leave after a few moments, but when I open the game again to go to the main file I see the new file isn't there, but the old one is still there.
Checking more I realize my emulator's configuration isn't saving either, more specifically the volume slider.
I saw other answers to similar issues on the forums so I want to clarify: I ALREADY UN-CHECKED THE READ ONLY BOX on the launcher and the folder containing the shortcut, and folder containing Dolphin itself, and the one containing a newer version of Dolphin that makes Paper Mario unplayable.
ONE MORE THING: doing a last checkup after writing this I found the "read-only" option under the Emulation tab. I'm now able to save games, however I have to start the emulation, swap windows to un-check the read only option, and only then I'm allowed to save, but of course, since the configuration doesn't save, I have to do this every time so I'd appreaciate any help to solve this.
Currently using 4.0.2
And the other version is 5.0
