Description

Description

I just installed the latest stable build of Retroarch, 1.8.8, and i can't do any savestates with any core. I made clean install for the third time, also tried 1.8.7 and the problem still. Any reason why this can happen?
I checked settings > directory and savestates directory is ok. ux0:/data/retroarch/savestates

Expected behavior

To be able to do savestates.

Actual behavior

When i want to make a savestate the prompt stuck in "Saving state 0%" and stay there forever until i close Retroarch.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the stuck “Saving state 0%” behavior on PS Vita with RetroArch 1.8.7 or 1.8.8, using the reported savestate directory ux0:/data/retroarch/savestates. Done means savestates can be created successfully with the affected cores instead of hanging.
