recursive ROM folders not working

Hi. I've just updated an old installation with latest 0.224, and wanted to start clean. So I installed in new folder, and then configured ROM folder to point to my roms dir, which is d:\games\mame\roms. Just added that one. MameUI64 scanned that folder, very quick, and found 0 (zero) games!
Problem is I have all sorted out in subfolders, like:
d:\games\mame\roms\standard
d:\games\mame\roms\neogeo
d:\games\mame\roms\n64
and so no... You can figure out... d:\games\mame\roms\"swlist" is more or less my structure.
So, question... what should I configure in mameui64 in order to get it to scan the folder AND subdirs? Is it possible, or should I need to add each swlist folder manually?
Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification...
is there any other GUI/frontend with such a capability?
Maybe worth a try

Yes Robert. It helps. I just tried adding that root (games/mame/roms) and it works for sw but no for standard even though they are inside that root folder.
So, should I have 2 folders like:
/games/mame/roms/software/"swlist"
/games/mame/roms/standard
Could you please recommend what would work as a correct setup?
Thanks again!

When I updated to 0.224 my directories were no longer loading up correctly. A fast refresh. The clone filter via right-clicking in the left hand column was no longer working, chdlist missing, and auditing anything that did show (and did run) always brought up a rm check of 'none required'. MAME in comparison had no issues, just MAMEUI. A reinstall to a different folder fixed the issue though, pointing to the exact same directories. Possibly a bug or the result of incompatible old config files
