      I cannot seem to get my usb to work to run games with.
      Everytime the same thing happens. I select the usb as my default storage. I then reboot and it takes like 15 mins to start up and only half the folders appear. when i unplug and plug back in the rest of the files appear but the roms folder wont open on my pc as it gives an error. I cant delete it to add it manually. I just keep running into the same problem and i have installed recall box properly more then once. Can anyone please help as getting any sort of emulator to work on my Pi 3 B has just been such a long process as i already gave up with retro pie and everyone said after install recall box as its better.

              Thank you! ExFat is working fine now. Must have just not liked me using NTFS.

                As for NTFS and exFAT, their compatibility is quite different.
                NTFS:
                Compatibility: Works with all versions of Windows, but read-only with Mac by default, and may be read-only by default with some Linux distributions. Other devices — with the exception of Microsoft’s Xbox One — probably won’t support NTFS.
                exFAT:
                Compatibility: Works with all versions of Windows and modern versions of Mac OS X, but requires additional software on Linux. More devices support exFAT than support NTFS.
                According to the comparison, exFAT seems to be more compatible than NTFS. In different situations, you can convert NTFS to exFAT or convert NTFS to exFAT via Disk Management, Windows File Explorer or DiskPart command line.
