PSP deleting files and then saying they are corrupted?

[Bagel Le Stinky]

So I'm trying to put homebrew apps and games on my PSP, so I put them in PSP/GAME since they were in pbp format, but on the PSP they showed as corrupted files. I put the card back in my computer and the folders with the games in them were empty. I also checked and it appears that any new files I try to add are automatically deleted, even if it's in a folder with no association with anything to do with the PSP itself. If it helps I have a PSP-1000 running PRO 6.20 CFW

So your PSP automatically deletes homebrews it doesn't recognize.... Very strange, never heard of such a thing.
Maybe you have an option turned on in the PSP menu that does this. Mind that not all homebrews work on PSP1000 or you have to use its apposite versions, assuming they exist.

After some more attempted troubleshooting, I've found that it's not from the PSP, the files are deleted after I take the SD card out of the computer.

Before extracting the SD from the PC, you must always eject it first with the appropriate windows function, otherwise some sectors (clusters) of it may be corrupted.

That's what I have been doing, but it doesn't seem to help. It was a cheap card off of Amazon so I think that might be why.

Pay attention that the problem may also depend on the micro SD reader, which may have been damaged.

I know that's not the case because I use it with my 3ds and have had no issues on there

So I just made a backup of the things on the SD, formatted it and put the files back and it worked fine, but I'm having a similar issue where it's hiding some folders. So I have a roms folder for retroarch, with a bunch of different folders of games but on the PSP it only shows the Atari folder and some loose files in the base ROMs folder. This time it IS an issue with the PSP since all the folders and files show fine on my computer

I had already told you that some homebrew apps and emulators do not work on the old PSP1000, or require a specific version for it (usually It includes 2 folders, one of them with "%" in its name).
If I am wrong, someone please correct me.

I also found a fix for this issue, I split all the files into more small folders and then they showed.
