Open the Start menu. Type PowerShell and open it. Paste the line. Press Enter.

Technical notes

Scans every file in the system directory, filters by exact 512 KB size, then validates the full binary against an internal SHA-256 database (lifted from Mednafen). Region must match the loaded disc. Known-bad dumps are rejected. No filename requirement. No HLE fallback. The disc region comes from the sector 4 licence string alone: "Inc" is Japan, "America" and "of America" are NorthAmerica, "Europe" is Europe, and any other string refuses the disc (upstream src/cdrom/disc/mod.rs:56-99, source src/lib.rs:71-82, 170-215). "Boot to BIOS menu" core option allows booting without a disc. Database contains 24 entries (22 good, 2 known-bad rejected) covering BIOS versions 1.0 through 4.5. .info declares firmware_count=0, while the core reads the BIOS images this profile lists. Project abandoned, superseded by rustation-ng.

22 files. One of 3 is required, for your games' region. 19 are optional.

In this collection: 22 in repo and 0 missing.
