Hi, sorry for my english.
I've somme problems that i'm trying to fix it with no ways.
When i put new roms in the folder, with clrmame i have a lot of : Wrong name xxxxxx right name : xxxxxxx
I have both roms but i can't delete only manually wrong names because there is too much wrong name to be delete.
What can i do to delete all this??

follow just a few steps:
1- move ALL of your roms to a temp folder
2- use CLRMAME to rebuild your collection, using as source your temp folder and as destination your rom folder, check "remove matched sourcefiles"

When you download new roms, put them in the temp folder and repeat step 2 above.

Wrong name files get fixed (renamed to correct name) when the belonging fix option is enabled, too. Unneeded files get deleted (moved to backup) when the belonging fix option is enabled, too.

When a rename fails (e.g. because when the 'new name' already exists), they are put in the backupfolder by default.

To sum it: you simply have to enable the fix options (checkboxes right beneath the check checkboxes).
