Estimated changes

/mnt/sdcard/yabause have to moved to /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.uoyabause.uranus/files/yabause
on external storage only /storage/XXX-XXX/Android/data/org.uoyabause.uranus/files/ is accessible.
When you uninstall game data is removed.
You can not share files( game files and backup data, state file) between pro version and free version.

At the point of view emulation app, scoped storage downgrades user experiences
