Hello
@Boon Tobias ,
thank you so much for answering me and for the suggestions, I am actually referring to the guide and following it like a bibble, I did not see that explanation, I may have missed it, I will try and let you know.
Just to be sure, I have to place wLaunch in the Boot folder of the memory card, right?

Hello again,
I hope this is the final update and so to dn't bother you all again, I did several tests today and I think I solved all of my issues, hereunder a few results that can help even you all...I hope
-So, to solve the APPs issues, I tried with different uLaunch and wLaunch renamed WLE.ELF placed in the USB:\RETROLauncher\System\RetroarchPS2\APPS and no one was working, everytime I was trying to launch an APP I was going back to the wLaunch screen, I then tried removing the WLE from the USB folder and everythng is now workig perfectly, APPS that I am running:
Cheat Devie PAL
Cheat Device NTSC
ESR
PSXLauncher
FreeMCBoot Configurator
uLaunch
Everything launches perfectly
But was still I could not launch PS2 CD/DVD and PS1 CDs from there by clicking on the Name ID once they happear in the APPS list, but I found a work around, to be considered that if you have a Slim you may have the Disc switches blocked to run Backup CDs, so, you can have different configurations
1 with Disc switches not blocked (or just the internal one blocked)
-You can place both ESR and the PSXLauncher in the APPS folder (as you can see above I did it already)
-You start your console (mine is starting directly on RetroLauncher; skiping FreeMCBoot menu)
-Once RetroLauncher is up and running, you insert your disc, either a PS2 or PS1 disc, and close the disc cover, the disc will start spinning. NOTE for PS2 you can insert either an original or backup disc
-Once the disc will appear in the APPs list, if it should not appear just press the R3 to refrash, DO NOT CLICK on the Disc ID
-If you are running a PS2 Disc, either an original one or a Backup disc, press on ESR and the game will start
-If you are running a PS1 original Disc, just press the PSXLauncher and the game will start
With this set up it is pretty impossbile to launch PS1 Backup CDs as you should keep the front disc switch blocked manually (having already the internal switch blocked permanently) to have the possibility to move out the original disc and insert the back up one, but once you fill in the backup CD, at a certain point in time, you will be obliged to release the disc switch you are manually pressing and so the Disc lens will reset and block loading as you are running a back up disc
2 with disc switches blocked
this is the easiset one
-For PS2, you just insert a PS2 Original/Back disc and press the reset button on your console, if the lens is working good and so it is pretty fast your game will start right away and the console will not go to the RetroLaunch home, another way would be to Power down the console, remove the USB stick having RetroLauncher, and then start the console which will open at the FreeMCBoot dash and you can work as usual from there
-For PS1, if you want to play an original CD game, just follow the same procedure as for PS2, if you want to run backup games, you have to fill in first the original CD, then follow the procedure (which I think you all know) to run PSXLauncher (Usually the R1 Button pressed while starting up) and when the disc stops spinning you can replace the orginal one with the Backup one and press X to load the game
A question that you may have on the set up 2, Why I cannot run a disc like at point 1 when the console is already started?
Because having the switches blocked the console will look for discs as soon as you press the power button, so, if you should fill in a disc once RetroLauncher is already up and running, the disc will not start spinning anymore.
I hope I did everything correctly, if I did or said something stupid just tell me.
Now I miss just the ARTs for the APPS and I should the be able to go.
BR
