Hello i'm trying to run the Script, but i'm getting my main Files form F:\ compressed from root,

As you can see Directories are:

$workingdir = "F:\exotemp" #empty folder
$newdir = "F:\EXO_Mister" #empty folder where new files will be created
$filedir = "F:\eXoDOS\eXo\eXoDOS" #folder with current zip files

however its zipping everything in F:\

.PS1 is running from: F:\Mister\EXOPREP.PS1

Output:
Compress-Archive The archive file 'F:\EXO_Mister\$100,000 Pyramid (1988).zip' creation is in progress... [ooooooooooo ]

Is this the script that allows creating a custom list? Or it packages everything in Exodos?

This is Freddo's original Powershell script which really shouldn't be used unless you are just trying to learn. The ExoDOSConverter tool with the MiSTer option has matured well beyond this script.

Sorry, I need to make a new video on the process. Here is the ExoDOSConverter program. https://github.com/Voljega/ExoDOSConverter
