Description
Describe the bug
related entry: https://docs.libretro.com/library/citra/#directories
Under Frontend's Save directory is a link to Citra's User Directory wiki entry, which states this path:
C:/Users/[your-user-name]/AppData/Roaming/Citra/
3DS games that require the additional 3DS system files won't boot if those are stored in said path.
Expected behavior/changes
RetroArch's Citra user directory is actually in main RetroArch folder > saves > Citra and that's where the additional 3DS system files need to be stored.
Additional context
New users will likely be uncertain of where to store the additional necessary 3DS system files, thinking it's "C:/Users/[your-user-name]/AppData/Roaming/Citra/"

Research direction
Start with the Citra documentation page at docs.libretro.com/library/citra/#directories and inspect the “Frontend's Save directory” entry. Update the directory guidance so it points to the RetroArch saves/Citra location for the additional 3DS system files, then verify the linked instructions no longer direct users to Citra’s AppData path.
