Wind Waker Save Slot Issue

[marquiseing]

hi,

so I'm new here and I have no idea about computers for the most part, so please bear with me  

I am running Wind Waker right now and it's working fine, but I lost my save file after the Earth Temple so I downloaded a save file that picks up where I left off, but I am having trouble applying it to my game. The save file I want is already under the GameCube Memory Card Manager and it's under the same Memory Card that I use to play the game. For some reason, it's not showing up when I start emulating it. Am I missing something here?

Let me know if you need more information, and thank you in advance for your help!

In Config > GameCube, is the memory card set up as "Memory Card" or "GCI Folder"? Does the save file's region match the region of your game?
