The Browser is the first window shown when opening Patchman.

Upon launch, the browser will scan all folders set in the settings (see First-Time Setup for how to change these folders); progress is illustrated at the bottom of the window.

A table lists the type, name, date, rack count, and checksum for each ROM found. Click on a column header to sort the table by that column.

Note

If files are missing, ensure the path they are in is set as a search path in the settings and that it is a supported file type.

To edit a file, double-click on its entry.

If the same patch table appears in multiple files, each file will be marked with a icon-duplicate icon.

Further options are available by right-clicking on its entry:
