### How do I dump/extract my games?
|
||||
The recommended method is to insert your game disk into a modded Xbox and directly transfer the files off the disc via FTP (usually in the /D/ directory) using a program such as [FileZilla](https://filezilla-project.org/) or [WinSCP](https://winscp.net/). Ensure the disc is clean and your Xbox's DVD drive is in working order.
|
||||
|
||||
That is the most straightforward method, though there are more methods that make more complete dumps such as using a [special drive such as one flashed with 'Kreon' firmware](http://forum.redump.org/topic/6073/xbox-1-360-dumping-instructions/). Once completed you can extract the resulting .iso using a tool such as XDVDmulleter or exiso.

These are not standard .iso files and *cannot* be extracted by WinRAR or 7-Zip.
|

|

Methods such as DVD2Xbox or other similar tools are *not* recommended due to their tendency to make modifications to the Xbe file like region check or anti-piracy bypasses. _These are unneeded for Cxbx-Reloaded and may cause issues._

### Where are save files stored?
|
||||
Save files are stored inside Partition1 of Cxbx-Reloaded's EmuDisk:

``%AppData%\Cxbx-Reloaded\EmuDisk\Partition1\ ``
|

`%AppData%\Cxbx-Reloaded\EmuDisk\Partition1\`

|

|

### Why don't the save files from my Xbox work?
|
||||
Xbox saves are encrypted and require a key from the actual console to use.
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately there is currently no easy way to get this key from your Xbox.

### A game stopped working after I updated Cxbx-Reloaded
|
||||
If you were using an older version and upgraded, files in Cxbx-Reloaded's AppData may have been corrupted.
|
||||
Cxbx-Reloaded's AppData and/or settings may have been corrupted by an older version, and need to be reset:
|
||||
|
||||
To reset everything open Cxbx-Reloaded, then go to ``Settings -> Reset to Defaults``.
|
||||
* Open Cxbx-Reloaded, go to `Settings -> Reset to Defaults`.
|
||||
|
||||
After Cxbx-Reloaded closes, delete the Cxbx-Reloaded folder in ``%AppData%``.
|
||||
* Close Cxbx-Reloaded, and delete the Cxbx-Reloaded folder in `%AppData%`.
|
||||
|
||||
If this does not help, please report the issue in our [game compatibility tracker](https://github.com/Cxbx-Reloaded/game-compatibility).

### How do I run games in a higher resolution such as 720p, 1080p, 1440p, or 4K?
|
||||
There are multiple ways to run games in a higher resolution on Cxbx-Reloaded.
|
||||
|
||||
Most of them require hacks made by a user, and because of this not officially supported by Cxbx-Reloaded:
|
||||
|
||||
* Patching the .xbe (xbox executable) file of the game to change values related to the resolution with a program like [OgXHD](http://bmkeyscom.ipage.com/marvelousmirth/ogxhd.html) or [HxD](https://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/).
|
||||
|
||||
* Using an external program or script like [Cheat Engine](http://cheatengine.org/) to inject and change values inside the Cxbx-Reloaded process while the emulator is running.
|
||||
|
||||
Also see: http://ps2wide.net/xbox.html https://assemblergames.com/threads/xbox-widescreen-hacks.68347
|
||||
* Changing the `Video Resolution` option in the Video settings. (Least compatible/working method)

* https://assemblergames.com/threads/xbox-widescreen-hacks.68347
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Due to the variance in work and hacking knowledge required for each game, there isn't one tutorial we can provide that would apply to every game.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are inexperienced and want a simple way to change resolution that will work for most games, it is best to wait for an official option within the emulator.

### What are the LLE options for? Should I enable them?
|
||||
As of April 9th, 2018 only one LLE option is implemented: LLE GPU.
