Summary
This pull request introduces two utility scripts for Aurora, designed to simplify maintenance and improve the overall user experience.
AuroraDriveFixerSmart
Automatically detects storage devices and repairs common issues related to scan paths after drive changes, cloning, or storage migration. The script helps Aurora locate games correctly again without requiring users to manually recreate their scan paths.
Key features:
DeadEntryCleaner
Scans Aurora's
content.dbdatabase for invalid or orphaned entries ("dead entries") and removes them safely, keeping the database clean and preventing duplicate or broken game listings.Key features:
Testing
Both scripts have been thoroughly tested on Aurora 0.7b.2 using multiple storage configurations (HDD and USB). The scripts were also tested with different game layouts and databases to ensure safe and reliable operation.
Notes
These scripts are intended to automate common maintenance tasks while minimizing the risk of user error. They are designed to be safe, lightweight, and easy to use for both new and experienced Aurora users.
