Looks that way! Thanks

cant show the warnings as I already accepted them all so re-running the install is not bringing them up. but it was all of them, from when I first clicked on it and a couple of more times during the install, 1 of them came from smart screen? Deleted everything in the plugin folder as it was empty previously, now it loads right up. Not sure where that came from as I even looked in the backup I did of the folder before I started and it wasn't there. verified that if I install beta 13 over top it stops working and reinstalling beta 14 on top of that everything works again.

really did not want to install, kept getting all sorts of messages from windows telling me how dangerous it was. Trying to launch it after the many, many warning gives a warning that it cannot open a plugin, see pic.

error checking reports nothing. Drive e is a 1tb internal spinning disk.

there are 2 windows Application log events when I start the program. if that helps. Sent as DM

No idea, if I move the Games/Images/Manuals/Metadata/Sounds/Videos/Music folders out of the install folder it still won't work. Even tried moving the Data folder and still nothing. Another data point, if I move the working install from c:\users\$username\Launchbox to the e drive it also stops working.

also, original install is on drive e: the one that works was to the default directory of c:\users\$username\Launchbox

sent, what interesting is if I delete everything in that folder and paste in the one from the working install it still doesn't start.

boots up if I do a new install in a different folder

neither starts, big box I see a quick busy cursor but nothing else

In the LBTheme folder I have Default and Old Default

Plugin folder is empty. In the theme folder I have (BigCouch, Default and Unified)

installed and same results

yes, same results

The only thing that it ask admin rights for is DirectX SDK
