All entries are blank. The controller works at first but if you try to modify controls or press start to reset to default, it will break that button until content is restarted noconfig . This is on Windows

Yes, this core is based on an outdated version of bsnes and has no options, input descriptors, etc, and it's recommended not to use it. From the documentation: "This core exists as a side effect of porting/forking mednafen for its other cores in the past. There's no reason to use this core now that there's other more compatible and faster SNES cores." From the info file: "An older fork of Mednafen's original SNES emulator, which is itself based on an old fork of bsnes circa v059, this core does not have any compelling uses as compared with the other SNES cores that are available. It is not as fast as Snes9x nor as accurate as later bsnes forks or Mesen-S, and most users would be better off trying one of those cores instead. This core only exists for completionist's sake."

Another option is Mednafen's newer, faster Supafaust; the main drawback seems to be that it only supports joypad and multitap, but not Superscope, SNES Mouse, etc.
