Configuration

While RetroHub is designed with minimal configuration in mind, there’s plenty of options available to further customize it to your liking. This page thus covers all available configurations.

Note

Region settings are used to customize how RetroHub displays different types of information, and has no impact whatsoever on what games can be played.

  • Region: User region

    • Reset region defaults: Resets the other settings to the default according to the selected region.

  • Rating system: Rating system to use for games: ESRB, PEGI or CERO.

  • Date Format: Date format to present dates in.

  • System Names: Preferred system names for systems with different names per region.

Note

If you have games on two system folders that are the same but have different names per region (e.g. genesis and megadrive), RetroHub will combine both games and show them under your preferred system name. Likewise, if you change the region system name, you don’t need to move files in your library.
