Navigate your computer for your PlayStation 2 ISO.Go to CDVD > ISO Selector > Browse, as shown below:.If your game is not in those formats, read here. PCSX2 only supports ISOs in the following formats: ISO, BIN, IMG, MDF, and NRG. Once your games are extracted, look at their file extension.If you need step-by-step help with extracting 7Z files, check out YouTube. You can use 7-Zip to extract them (it's free).

For example, see this picture where I configured the face buttons to keyboard keys.When successful, you should see the configured button appear in the “ Device/PC Control/PS2 Control” panel on the left. Click a button in this area, then press the keyboard key or gamepad button that you wish to configure it to. These are all the buttons you can configure.

Keeping it on your computer is better than external storage because it runs better & faster. These are common locations with full read/write access.

If you want to 'uninstall' a portable emulator, simply delete it! It's pretty straight-forward - all that you're doing is extracting a zip file while doing a little bit of folder management. To make things clearer, check out the video below that shows how to 'install' a portable emulator (it shows Snes9x, but PCSX2 is the same process). Installation is simple: just extract PCSX2 from its zip file.
