Portable version from one pc to another - MaestroLiendre - 02-27-2022

Hello there, I was wondering, that I'll be away from home for a bit, so I'll be only having my laptop and I was thinking to use that time that I will have without being able to play to fully organise my library, with all the games, icons, logos, covers, etc.


My question is if then If I would copy & paste that folder to my desktop computer, would that be "plug & play"? I know I would have to update shortcuts probably (especially for emulated games) but besides that, would everything be there like custom covers, background, etc.?

I don't want to spend hours and hours and then just have that in a laptop that I can't use to play xD

Thanks for the reply. I just had another idea, would actually work to install playnite in the dropbox directory, so it would sync in all my devices?

Thank you.
