If you are an emulation enthusiast—whether you use RetroArch, Dolphin, PCSX2, Citra, Yuzu, or a standalone emulator—you may have encountered a frustrating and cryptic error message:

: Attempting to randomize pre-patched or "trimmed" ROMs often triggers this exception. Solution : Use an unmodified, "clean" ROM. If you must patch the game, do so after randomization if the tool allows it.
