My games organized into folders on the Wii U menu are gone after updating Aroma?

This is after using aroma previously and just updating to the newest version.

Is this normal?

How can I prevent this next time?

I had them nicely organized :-(

Yeah that's normal, if you go back to Tiramisu (and I guess Haxchi too) your old folders should still be there, so I guess Aroma uses a different file structure.

Oh, nevermind then, I just noticed there was an update 3 hours ago, maybe something was changed that deleted your configuration, I haven't used my console in the last couple of weeks, I'll update and let you know if my folders or any other stuff gets deleted or changed.

Ok I just updated to the latest version of Aroma and all my folders are intact, so my guess is that it's something related to your hard drive. I remember one time I connected my HDD using the Y cable but only connected one port, so it wasn't getting enough power as it didn't even display any game. I turned the console off and then back on and now the games did appear but all my folders had been deleted.

    VR had the chance to integrate with existing games and tech but VR companies said "NO, I WANT MY SHIT TO BE STANDALONE AND MY GAMES EXCLUSIVE TO FACEBOOK"

    Back when Oculus Rift was still starting out and being demoed around, they modded existing games to use it as a 360° immersive screen thing and that was AMAZING.

    The tech isn't there for affordable power enough VR headsets at a good market value yet sadly, oculus had a good idea but didn't have enough funds for marketing iirc

    The tech to have quality VR goggles at an affordable price is here, but every set has to have 4 additional controllers and be standalone.

    These are the same type of gamers that spend $2,000 on a GPU when a $600 GPU gives nearly the same outcome which is what the market looks at for them to do spend more on unneeded bs

    I think they should bring back the shutter glasses for VR put 120Hz screen in for 60FPS and even a basic phone these days can pull that off
