Mame "Required rom/disk images for the selected system are missing or incorrect"

Mame "Required rom/disk images for the selected system are missing or incorrect" - Free stock photo of alphabet, be a self starter, blur

I downloaded a ROM file from a Google search, and then I downloaded the latest version of Mame, "mame0231b_64bit.exe". Now, when I tried to run it, I got "Required rom/disk images for the selected system are missing or incorrect". What is wrong? The message is ambiguous to me. Is the ROM file corrupt or, are some additional files for Mame missing, or are the settings incorrect?

How do I fix MAME roms missing files?

To fix the issue, try the following. Ensure game roms are in the proper folder. The EXE file that runs MAMEUI must be in the same location as the roms folder. Make sure you haven't dragged the EXE to the desktop or another location, as it will not work properly without the folders in the proper place.

Where do I put MAME ROM files?

When you download MAME Roms, they come in ZIP format. You do not need to extract them. Leave them zipped and place them in the \u201cC:\\mame\\roms\u201d folder.
