Emulation Window Automatically Closes for Wii Games - InfoManiac742 - 07-10-2019

Hi, I recently switched computers, and after I transferred everything I noticed that whenever I tried to open up a Wii game, Dolphin would just display a black window for a little bit and then close it. I don't know if this is a problem with transferring the files to my new computer, but so far I haven't been able to solve this.

In addition, I tried to perform a system update on my virtual Wii and it said that it failed. It left the following message in the log: [0612/103446.667:ERROR:crash_report_database_win.cc(428)] unexpected header

Works:
Luigi's Mansion
Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness

Doesn't Work:
Metroid Prime Trilogy
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy 2

Edit: Here are my specs:
Windows 10 Home 1809
AMD Ryzen 7 3750H with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx 2.30 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
Intel? 8.00 GB
Dolphin 5.0-10607

So, I'm pretty sure from what I've gathered that there were probably a few key files that didn't get transferred over to my new computer. Is there someplace that has a list of all of the dolphin files to check to see that I have everything?

You ideally would want to copy the whole "Dolphin Emulator" folder to Documents.

Do you have BlueTooth passthrough enabled, panic handlers disabled, and no setup bluetooth?


RE: Emulation Window Automatically Closes for Wii Games - InfoManiac742 - 07-13-2019

My Dolphin Emulator folder is already in Documents, and I'm using an emulated Wii Remote.
I was able to set my thing to bluetooth passthrough, but that didn't fix it. Use panic handlers was already off, and I can't find no-setup bluetooth.

Is there some way that I can re-install Dolphin without losing my savestates, savefiles, and controller configurations?

Okay... I turned off progressive scan and that somehow fixed the problem... so fixed I guess?
