Provide a clear and concise description of the issue

I have been playing Pokémon Leaf Green for a while using the GBSP emulator in the expert menu using the latest stable version. I updated to the beta 4.4.0. I am aware that the new default is GBSP. After the update, I expected to be able to continue where I left off when selecting the game in either the main games menu or in the expert menu. Instead, the game restarted from the beginning. I have tried searching for the save file but I only found the new save file that was created when I tried to continue the game.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Play Pokémon Leaf Green using GBSP in the expert menu.
2. Update to beta 4.4.0.
3. Play Pokémon Leaf Green from the GBA menu in the main games menu.

Provide any additional context or information that may help us investigate your issue

I’m playing on a miyoo mini plus.

I am facing the same issue on a new install of 4.4.0 beta on a new SD card. It seems not only gpSP is affected, also Gambatte (GBC) seems to be unable to create save files.

@SnoJo1 can you take a snapshot and attach it here please

@manuquadrat I quickly tested Gambatte, and I have no issues saving - feel free to create a new issue and attach more details

I also created a snapshot for gpSP. What I did before creating the snapshot:

• launchend Pokemon Unbound and saved, quit game via game switcher.
• launched Pokemon Emerald Legacy and saved, quit game via game switcher.

Both have the savestate via the game switcher available, but no save file if I reset the game. I re-packed the snapshot as .zip, since GitHub does not allow .7z files.

The SD card is a fresh install of Onion 4.4.0 beta via the Onion Desktop Tools, only ROMs and previous saves were copied after flashing the SD card.
