Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is done automatically every time GameEx starts. That's why it sometimes takes me a full minute to boot up because it's re-caching my "inventory". You might have to delete the database or something if yours isn't working right.

I think by 'database', our Scruffy Little Nerf Herder really means the cache files for the emulator. :)

cnells2000: Just to confirm, you are not using map files for your console emulators, correct?

So I just search for the emulator cache, and delete all the files in it?

Correct. Located in ...\GameEx\DATA. You are safe to delete all files with cache in them, but if you want to be specific (which might be preferable if you have many systems) then the cache files will correspond to the emulator slot you have them configured. For example you want to refresh your snes9x cache and you have it setup in emulator slot number 7, then all the related files will be prefixed with EMU_7... :)
