Unable to set-read from external memory

[hispanico]

On the new FireStick 4K Max (2* gen 2023) it is not possible to set the external memory of the USB stick as the games folder. 
I think it's due to an Android restriction. Is there a way to overcome this limit?

Thank you

It should be working as far as I know... Maybe your specific device has some kind of additional restriction. I don't know if anyone here has run Dolphin on it before.

What do you mean by impossible? If you press the "hamburger icon" (the icon with three lines), does it not list your USB stick?

You may have to connect a USB mouse to be able to reach the hamburger icon.

For my experience this problem is related on version of Android, Others emu as PPSSPP show same problem.
For your infromation i think that the problme it concerns the use of the Android file explorer which does not allow (privacy) reading from USB sticks or external disks. 
From the tests I have done, this does not happen for example with RetroArch emu which in fact does not use the Android explorer but its own explorer to search for the path of the games and this problem does not arise.
I try also this little trick
How to grant “Allow all the time” full file storage access permission for any app in Fire OS 8 on the 2nd-gen Fire TV Stick 4K & 4K Max | AFTVnews
but not solve
