 ### General Control Issues

 [Back to the Top](#common-issues-emudeck-for-windows-table-of-contents)
 
-***
+#### Using EmulationStation
+
+Make sure you are launching EmulationStation from Steam and that EmulationStation has one of our Steam Input Profiles enabled
+
+#### Using Steam
+
+Make sure that the game entry has one of our Steam Input Profiles active
+
+#### Using the Emulator directly
+
+Make sure you are launching the Emulator from Steam and that the Emulator has one of our Steam Input Profiles enabled
+
+#### Still not working...
+
+Please go to Manage Emulators -> Emulator -> Reset configuration and try again.
+
+#### I've done everything, my controls are still not working
+
+Follow this video:
+https://youtu.be/ra_B1axeFqU
+
+#### I don't want to use Steam, I prefer to use another Frontend like Playnite
+
+EmuDeck needs Steam Input to work out of the box, if you don't use Steam you'll need to manually configure each Emulator on install and on EmuDeck updates.
+
+The only alternative is to have Steam open in the background and do these steps: https://youtu.be/ra_B1axeFqU

+Emulators are pre-configured to work out of the box. However, if you are having issues, make sure you are using Steam to launch your ROMs and Emulators.
 
 Make sure to note the following:
 
-* Opening ROMs and emulators through Armoury Crate directly will not work
-* Select `Gamepad` mode specifically in the `Command Center`, do not use `Automatic`

+### PS3 games and EmulationStation
+
+[Back to the Top](#common-issues-emudeck-for-windows-table-of-contents)
+
+#### How to run directory games on EmulationStation
+
+Every time you launch SRM or EmulationStation, EmuDeck will rename your PS3 folder games adding at the end the text .ps3 so EmulationStation can detect them.
+
+For instance:
+
+`Heavenly Sword`
+
+will become:
+
+`Heavenly Sword.ps3`
 
-***
+# How to run HDD Games
+First install the game opening RPCS3 and then...
+
+#### Steam:
+
+Just launch Steam Rom Manager like with any other game.
+
+#### EmulationStation:
+
+- Open RPCS3
+
+- Go to the File menu, select Install Packages/Raps/Edats and select your game file
+
+- It should appear on the RPCS3 list of games as an HDD Game, right click and select Create Shortcut -> Create Desktop Shorcut
+
+- Copy the new shortcut from your Windows Desktop to your Emulation\ps3\roms\shorcuts folder, a new EmulationStation PS3 HDD Game category should appear.
