Gamelist.xml generates itself in a "corrupted" state

Hi,

Version: 18.06.27
Raspberry Pi3B

I am unable to scrape PSX games, because my gamelist.xml is always 1KB.
This is not happening with any other system.

If I delete it, it will create a new one, but with 1KB, is that normal?
I can't remember if gamelist is empty by default..... but think gamelist.xml is being generated corrupted.

These are the contents of a brand new Gamelist file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gameList />

Shouldn't be more like:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gameList>
</gameList>

I tried killing ES and manually editing the file with nano, when I save it and reboot, it goes back to it's initial state.

@boxcarpilot no it's a perfectly legit empty gamelist.xml

Solved it seems universal scraper wasn't properly killing ES, after using /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation stop, I was able to scrape just fine
