I have no experience with PCSX2, but maybe something in its configuration causes your issues. Reinstalling or updating it will not make a difference. If you really want to start over, close the application, remove the directory ~/.config/PCSX2 and restart the application. You will have to run through the initial wizard again. If it still won’t work, some other issue is the culprit and you would likely need to share logs. Alternatively, if the application prints logging to stdout, you could run the application from a terminal (f.e. by launching pcsx2-qt) and see if anything is printed there when it shuts down.

Now that’s awfully cool of you 😄. I’ll give that a spin with Symfonium this weekend; much obliged!

This sounds like a cool thing. Will it run on FreeBSD? If unknown, I will likely try and find out this weekend.

TrueNAS Core as main OS and a few jails for the services I run on the machine.
