In 8.1, it is no longer possible to play regular doom and quake at all. This is very sad. Will have to switch to Retropie. It doesn't have these problems.
But you can tell me how to disable the restoration of files in the ports folder?

I believe you are referring to Recalbox 8.0.1, not 8.1, right?
Another user recently posted how to play these games with a modern joystick, in version 8.0.1, so you can play these games in that version... :
Do the workarounds to this problem that were suggested in version 7 no longer work?

I know you already have an open issue on gitlab, and you've updated it today, I recommend you wait for a response on the issue:

No, it is not possible to prevent this automatic restore, there is no such option. A workaround, but not recommended, is to change the files directly in the //recalbox/share_init/roms folder, many users do this, but changing the wrong files will cause the system to crash, and you will need to reinstall manually. In addition, changes to this system folder are reset after an update.
If you are aware of the risks and want to do this, there are other topics you can use as an example:

The old 7 solution no longer works in version 8. And yes. I mean 8.0.1
@zing I posted the howto on using modern controls only to then realize that I'm limited to the shareware version. That was completely unexpected. I'm now using retropie for Quake. But it's always a tradeoff: retropie doesn't seem to have a libretro core for Wolfenstein3D. Both recalbox and retropie are fantastic but neither is perfect.
@tuxophil
Available in retropie Wolfenstein3D. Even with addon.
So why not play Wolfenstein 3D on Recalbox 8 in DOSBox ?
Or is this not possible too ?
The Full Version works great at last on my Raspberry Pi 3B+ and Recalbox 6.
