im getting the same error on import when i first start up launchbox. Something in the latest update broke something.
Was thinking of re-installing but i have a ton of custom menus etc... would i lose everything and have to reimport it all? if i just install it again without reinstalling to correct any missing files.

Try to add an exception to Your Firewall or disable it, worked for me.

Simply copy pasting the entire text of that error window into the beta thread (when on beta) would suffice, maybe give a little insight as to what you were doing when it happened, and whether you can get it to do it EVERY time or if it seems fairly random.
In fact, I was looking at the logs and I had the last one open, copying the error text to put it in the response...
Before sending it, I tried one last time to import the rom and it worked, I repeated it several times in case it was something casual, but it has continued to work.

Forget it! This has been like when you are feeling terrible and you go to the doctor and in the waiting room you feel better. I don't know how the problem is now fixed!??? Thanks for everything anyway.

of course. How do I share error? Do you know which folder the error logs are in? For the moment I post a video with the error but I guess it won't be worth much.

The same thing, when I import something from folders or individual files it gives me that error since 13.16 Beta 4. I have been forced to go back to 13.15 where it doesn't give any problem in that subject

They are back!!! Thank You

@GreatStone @Jason Carr It happened again this time with Pac-Land (World)

@Blitz Mary deleting .hi file yes. Other users seem to have been able to save their scores, so it should fix.
deleting hiscore.dat, no, as it will also prevent the hiscore plugin to save any score at all... for some rare situation, hiscore.dat should be perhaps fixed for the fshark entry by the hiscore.dat maintainer, I don't know.
Thank You I will do as you say
. By the way some user is pissed about that high score can you please erase the highscore?

Hi CurryKing32000 that someone is me, It is an error inside mame this has nothing to do with cheating. Check 'Troubleshooting MAME High Scores' latest posts inside troubleshooting forum.

@Blitz Mary OK, so it is clear now that the issue is coming from mame itself or most probably hiscore.dat entry for fshark: sometimes, the entry in hiscore.dat cannot accurately describe when and what to store in the .hi file, in rare situation. Deleting .hi file is the only way to solve it. Perhaps hiscore.dat maintainer can do something, but it is outside of my own scope. Anyway, thanks a lot for your reactivity to help me understand what was going on.
@Jason Carr How can we prevent to send such garbage to global community ladder? Do you have something in mind I can do? The only potential solution I see currently is trying to add a new feature to give max value for score or area here (inside the hi2txt xml describing how to decode the .hi file), so that if one decoded value > max, then we decide that the .hi file is corrupted and do not display anything?
so the fix for now may be deleting the .hi file and if that doesn't solve the problem also hiscore.dat from the plugins folder?

@Blitz Mary Thanks for the .hi file. Now, what I am seeing here is a completely corrupted .hi file content, explaining why hi2txt is extracting that... When you start again mame with this game, is the ingame hiscores table is showing the right scores on screen or the same garbage also?
garbage everywhere

@Blitz Mary Having the log greatly help! May I request also the .hi file (located in <mame_install_folder>\hi\fshark.hi) ? I am very curious to see its content...

the error is related to this parameter (System.Net.Sockets.Socket.AwaitableSocketAsyncEventArgs.ThrowException(SocketError error, CancellationToken cancellationToken) disable the Firewall or add an exception to it for Launchbox it worked at least for me.
