Thunderbird1400

Hi! This actually solves the issue! When I rename the folder from "Emulatoren & Roms" to "EmulatorenRoms", Launchbox 13.6 starts. If I add the "&" in the folder name again, Launchbox 13.6 doesn't start anymore. Great that the cause has been found, thanks! Of course that doesn't solve the issue for me at the moment, because the folder name must remain as it is, but I'm hoping for the next Launchbox update for this being fixed. Obviously this is a bug in version 13.6 that wasn't existent in all previous versions (I have Launchbox since 8.x and my folder name was always like this). Do the developers read here, so that this can be fixed in the next version? Thanks and have a nice rest of the weekend!

Ok, I created another Thread under Troubleshooting. Thanks.

And the second error:

Here the full error description of the first error:

Hi! When I install Launchbox 13.6 over my existing installation, it crashes immediately during start with two error messages (see below). If I then re-install 13.5 over the existing installation, it works perfectly again. It's absolutely reproducable, I did it multiple times. 13.5 working fine, 13.6 crashing. My computer is a Windows 10 system (relatively fresh installation) with all latest updates, AMD Ryzen 5900X + 6900XT. No Antivirus software installed besides the Windows defender. I already posted this problem in the Launchbox 13.6 release thread where faeran asked what happens if I install Launchbox 13.6 in a different folder. I tried that. Result: Launchbox 13.6 did run fine when I installed it under y:\Launchbox\ instead of y:\Emulatoren & Roms\Launchbox\. So a "naked" installation is working. But of course that's not a solution. It took me years to set-up Launchbox as it is right now. Any ideas what I can try?

Actually it's two error messages, but they seem to be very similar. The second one is:

Yes, did it multiple times. It's absolutely reproduceable. Here's the full error description:

Yes, I downloaded the latest 13.6 installer from the Launchbox website and installed it over my current build. Installation runs completely until the end without error. But when I start Launchbox afterwards, is crashes. Then I install 13.5 over my current build and it runs perfectly.

Version 13.6 is just crashing directly during start. Never had this issue with any other version. Also a manual download of the 13.6 installer from the website and installing it over my existing Launchbox installation doesn't fix the issue. Just crashing. How can I download old Launchbox versions? EDIT: I found the Launchbox 13.5 version in my Launchbox\Updates folder and re-installed this version over my existing Launchbox folder. Now Launchbox is working flawlessly again. So it's a clear problem with only version 13.6.

I've tried it, does not work. I've whitelisted it as scanning exception and also defined it as trustworthy software. Didn't help. However, I've uninstalled Kaspersky now. Wanted to do it since a while anyways, don't trust this company anymore.

Ok, I've disabled the autostart of iCUE and restarted the computer (both iCUE and Dragon Center not running), but it doesn't help. I've tried it with Launchbox 10 and the new 10.1, same result. Installing version 9.10 again and everything works fine. It's a quite fresh windows 10 install by the way, installed it one month ago (clean install, not upgrade) with all latest updates. And I don't have much software installed. Beneath the mentioned tools I've just installed some games and game launchers (steam etc.), browsers and the normal stuff. And Kaspersky Internet Security. Board is the X570A-Pro, as mentioned. So it's a Ryzen 3000 system. EDIT: Wow, I found the problem. Disabled Kaspersky Internet Security and Launchbox 10 works! So the new version is incompatible with Kaspersky! As soon as I start Kaspersky again, Launchbox 10 fails to start.

Ah ok. I'll check whether there is such a function in the Dragon Center, but I don't think so. iCUE definitely doesn't. Think I have to wait for next Launchbox version.

Yes ok, but I still have no idea what is meant with adding an exception.

How do you mean, adding an exception for Launchbox? Both mentioned tools (Corsair iCUE and MSI Dragon Center) are tools for RGB control, reading mainboard sensors, clock rates etc.

Indeed I have a MSI board (X570A-Pro) and installed the Dragon Center software (RGB control etc). But it was not running while I tried to install Launchbox (although I'm not 100% sure that there is no background process of that software). And I'm actively using the Corsair iCUE software (runs all the time). You think one of those could cause the problem?
