What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
so this issue has already happened once and was fixed as it was caused by a dolphin update, however, it has happened again, as of Dolphin 5.0 - 21500 the wii system menu freezes and crashed upon boot when trying to boot it via tools and then load system menu, this happened once in the past and was fixed so i assume it can be fixed again

What steps will reproduce the problem?

5.0 - 21500 update notes read " port to OpenBSD " not sure what openbsd is but the first dolphin version before that, the wii menu still boots fine, as of 25100 and later tho, it does not

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes, 5.0 - 21502

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

No, 5.0

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

5.0 - 21500

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

I7-13700F, RTX 4060 TI, Windows 11, 16 GB RAM

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

[Anything else here]
the way this issue has already happened once was nothing, but knowing that its happened again seems a bit worrying, if found to indeed be true again, maybe do be careful when updating dolphin
