Do you have m3u generation turn off or on when you are experiencing this?

Just tried every method I saw in this thread, and I'm not able to replicate this at all. Could either of you give me the exact steps you took to see what you saw? Also include any details about what buttons you pressed during the import process (as well as how you started the process, ie drag n drop vs rom import button in tools menu)

Just leave Win10 start as normal and put Big Box in your startup folder. Then both explorer and Big Box run at PC start up an in the correct order for the volume automation to work. You may have a second or two that you see the desktop when doing it this way though.

Now THAT'S a new one. Not sure I've ever seen that before. Really not sure what would cause something like that except a corrupted DLL. Anyway you can do a fresh install just to see if it happens in that one? You wouldn't need to import any games to it. Make sure you put it in a different folder so it doesn't mess with the current one.

Can you put up a screen shot about what you are talking about? Also what resolution/scaling are you running?

Can you PM me your settings.xml found in \\LaunchBox\Data

If you had everything turned off the recent update will have caused this. Please go into image priorities as instructed and confirm they are still set the way you intend them to be.

Worth running a driver check on your bluetooth adapters as well if you haven't already.

Yeah. What I asked you to mess with only affects navigation inside of LaunchBox, emulators will still work as before.

Defender is usually adequate but if you doubt the results getting trial software wouldn't hurt. Another thing to check is the drivers for your keyboard and mouse, they may be interacting weirdly with the bluetooth stack and causing issues for you because of it.

Go into Image Priorities, there is probably a checked blank box, un-check that and anything else on.

First off. I would run a virus scan as what you are experiencing sounds a lot like malware and not caused by LaunchBox. The only thing that comes to mind is one user reported that with Controllers enabled and set to scan for all in LaunchBox options it would cause delays and stop the cursor from moving for a second. You could try turning that off if on.

Unsure what you mean. If selecting the options I said to, if a game has an image of that image type it will NOT download them. It WILL if you do that from the Add/Edit game screen and hit "Download Images". You WOULD run into an issue if a game had a 2D box but not a 3D currently and LaunchBox found a 3D. It would download the 3D then you would need to go back to that game and delete the 2D (in your scenario)

Left hand side of LaunchBox, the filter default's to "Platform" but has several others to pick from.

I mean if you are getting THAT granular about what images you want or not, may be best to just open File Explorer and manually curate the images from there. All files are named with the game title so there shouldn't be any confusing which game you are looking at images for.

Everyone should see that when moving to 10.13. All those directories and files were moved to the \\Launchbox\ThirdParty\ directory. Shouldn't cause you any issues for you inside of LaunchBox or Big Box (with the exception of some plugins)

You mean the images used on the Gog store web page? I don't see any in Galaxy.

In LaunchBox set the filter to "Games Missing Media" select Box 3D and Box to see only games missing those image types. Go to Tools > Download Metadata and Media, select the image types you want to pull then on the last page select the middle option to not download or replace any images you already have. Right Click and select "Delete"

Go into device manager, find the device you are looking at wanting to wake the computer in the list. Right click and hit Properties. See if there is a Power Management tab with an option "Allow device to wake computer" and if so check it.

First chance exceptions typically shouldn't stop functionality from working. You do have a few red flags in your description though. LB probably shouldn't be put in "My Documents" to start. Windows gets pretty touchy when running applications out of system folders like that and can potentially cause issues. Best to have it in a folder you create on a drive (C:\LaunchBox\ for example). Another is that you claim you are running as admin. You should NEVER run a portable application as administrator. This includes LaunchBox. It WILL screw things up. When launching as admin, the OS tends to lie to the application about where it is being started from which can break relative paths and cause a whole host of other issues.

It wouldn't be caused by an update, but I would be curious how many auto-generated playlists you have. Having quite a few can cause delays when editing your library, which we've seen reported as acting vert similar to what you are describing.

There is an option (that defaults to on) to hide Auto-Gen playlists inside of Big Box, I would make sure that is off and then try again.

What bind are you having issues with? Would of though the "Close Active Window" bind would still function with Steam games (though I really don't recommend doing it that way as it can cause data loss in PC games)

You can arrange games by several items, in LaunchBox at the top there is a "Arrange By" drop down, click that and you will see a host of options. Can also default playlists to sort a certain way (or just use the default). You can also add Custom Fields to roms for some of the stuff in your collection you have a desire to differentiate. Things like the 100% complete vs complete

Probably an issue related to your display settings. Screen Resolution and Scaling are the two biggest things I could see being a factor. Do you know what your's are set to?
