I doubt a re-install would help. Can try the usual PC debug things like ensuring drivers are up-to-date. Make sure Big Box is actually using your dedicated GPU and not the integrated one on your CPU, etc.

Your original post says you CLEARED the image cache. Did you rebuild it afterwards? If not that load in delay is pretty standard. If the cache image isn't already built the app has to make one, save it, and then load an image in which of course takes more time and causes a delay.

If you're talking about the delay between when you move to a new item, and when the details FOR that item are displayed that's an intended feature. Details aren't loading until you've been on an item for I believe 250ms. This is done so that you aren't beating the crap out of your computer resources while holding down an input button trying to load items for every item you pass through. That being said themes can choose NOT to use this logic and use a binding that DOES refresh instantly. We don't recommend it because of the mentioned performance issues, but it's an option that's available to be utilized (with extreme caution).

Make sure you haven't accidentally linked a different profile to the Big Box application. Also can make sure you're not running LEDBlinky and it's doing it.

Yes, you can change the folder on a per platform basis by going to Tools > Manage > Platforms. Select the platform and then press Edit. In the window that opens (Edit Platform) there is a Folders tab, you can choose the new location there.

@JomSpoons This issue has been corrected. You will need to submit the change request again but once approved you should see the change applied.

What version of LB are you on?

Uncheck the "Download Missing RetroArch Cores" box that appears in the emulator select window.

You could do so as a Menu Item plugin but you'd have to make all your own UI for it. Now that we've gotten the skeleton for a much more robust plugin system in place I'm sure in the future we'll be adding several new types of plugins with better integration that we didn't have previously. Can't really give any sort of estimation if or when a dedicated scraping plugin would be created though as that call is quite a bit above my paygrade.

Best bet is to reach out to support@unbrokensoftware.com with any licensing questions. They have access to all the pertinent information regarding your license than anyone on the forums and can get you sorted.

This almost always happens when people have files that don't belong in \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms folder. There should be a single file per platform named the same as the platform in question. There shouldn't be any files that say "-backup" or "-copy" or anything like that in that folder.

You also can go to Tools > File Management > Consolidate ROMs for Platform and it should auto combined games with the same ID. Been a while since I've used that tool since I don't have dups in any of my sets so I'd backup your data files before using it just incase.

Have you checked out the audit feature? It'll mark duplicates for you. If the two games have the same LB Games Database ID that column value will be checked and the row turned red. You can sort by that column as well so all the dups rise to the top. You then select the two rows that are the same and right click and press combine. Sounds like a bit faster workflow then what you're trying to do.

Ah nice, I haven't had the time to play with mine much recently but I'll have to pull it out and see if it's resolved on mine as well.

As of right now that filter is working as intended. The proposed idea is an interesting one though. I'd encourage to click at the top of this web page on "Help & Support" and then "Request a Feature" and submit a feature request for it.

Typically when this issue is reported it's because the user has already imported the ROMs but they are hidden. Inside of LaunchBox in the View menu are several options to auto-hide games missing media, make sure those aren't on. You can also unhide hidden games from that menu entirely.

Could just turn off your screensaver...

Right click your plugins directory and make sure "Read-Only" is unchecked. We have had several people with this folder locked for some reason and I'm not yet entirely sure why...

Right click the folder after LaunchBox is opened and open it's properties. Make sure that "Read-Only" box is white (unchecked) and try again. We've been seeing issues on some users end where that folder is getting locked up for some reason and not letting us update the files correctly.

Or just a bad bluetooth driver, when's the last time you updated them?
