#### Troubleshooting
|
||
|
|
||
|
**The covers aren't displaying.**
|
||
|
|
||
|
Reload cache. If you don't see the covers on the games, press the `Home` button on the Wii Remote while in WiiFlow. Select `Reload Cache`, and the covers should now appear. ![WF_Reload_Cache](/images/WiiFlow/WF_Reload_Cache.png)
|
||
|
|
||
|
**The covers are zoomed in, stretched or are too small for the case.**
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the covers are **zoomed** in, **stretched** or not fitting right on the cases. Power down the Wii, eject the SD card/ USB HDD and plug it into the computer. Open **File Explorer**, navigate to your device and go into the `WiiFlow` folder that's on the **ROOT**. Once there, look for a folder called `cache` and delete it. Safely eject the device from the computer and plug it back into the Wii and load **WiiFlow** again, the covers should be there now.
