The Complete Guide to the Ryujinx Folder Structure & Migration

With the evolution of the Ryujinx emulator—specifically regarding updates to the GUI, portability changes, and the introduction of "Ava" (the Avalonia UI update)—many users are searching for how to handle a "new" folder setup or migrate their existing data.

This guide details what constitutes a "New" Ryujinx folder, the critical files you must keep, and how to migrate your data without losing save files or firmware.

3. Title Updates and DLC

When you install game updates, they are stored in the games folder, named by the game's Title ID: ryujinx folder new

[Ryujinx Folder]\games\[TitleID]\updates\

Important Notes for Beginners

• Do not confuse the Ryujinx folder with the game install folder. Your actual game files (XCI/NSP) can live anywhere.
• Back up your saves before deleting the old folder. Saves are inside bis/user/save/0000000000000000.
• The “new folder” approach does not violate any terms of use — Ryujinx is open-source (MIT license) and designed to be user-controlled.

Step 1: Backup Your Existing Data (Optional)

Before doing anything, go to your default Ryujinx folder (see Section 2) and copy important items like: The Complete Guide to the Ryujinx Folder Structure

• saves/ folder
• profiles/ folder
• system/ (contains firmware files)

8. Pro Tips: Managing Multiple Ryujinx Folders

Advanced users can maintain several independent Ryujinx folders. This is incredibly useful for:

• Modded vs vanilla game testing
• Different firmware versions
• Multi-user setups on a shared PC

Here is how to manage three separate new Ryujinx folders: [Ryujinx Folder]\games\[TitleID]\updates\

1. Folder A: E:\Ryujinx_Stable (for daily gaming)
2. Folder B: E:\Ryujinx_Testing (for experimental builds)
3. Folder C: E:\Ryujinx_Base (clean master backup)

Create three batch files:

• launch_stable.bat → Ryujinx.exe --root-data-path "E:\Ryujinx_Stable"
• launch_testing.bat → Ryujinx.exe --root-data-path "E:\Ryujinx_Testing"
• launch_base.bat → Ryujinx.exe --root-data-path "E:\Ryujinx_Base"

Each folder maintains its own saves, shaders, and config. This is the ultimate power-user approach to ryujinx folder new management.

9) Shader cache management

• Export or store shader caches in /shaders to reduce stutter on subsequent runs.
• Keep per-game shader cache files grouped (Ryujinx does this automatically if configured).

Issue 4: Permission denied (Windows)

Solution: Do not create your new Ryujinx folder in C:\Program Files or C:\Windows. Use a user-owned location like C:\Ryujinx_Data or a folder on your desktop.
