Ok noted, thank you for the explanation

I had just restarted the computer and launched BigBox, after it came up this message appeared before any media started playing, then it seemed to be unable to access the platform categories menu, which I use as the main/home screen, until I switched themes (I was using a combination of two themes and switched to just unified refried to fix that particular issue).

Thank you very much for the rapid response as usual, when I saw your statement that it was a false positive I allowed the DLL through defender, but was even more grateful to see you discovered the issue with defender and fixed the problem in such a timely manner. I definitely have not been disappointed with the program and the work you all do especially in responding to issues etc, have not regretted buying that lifetime license one bit.

I am somewhat inclined to believe it's a false positive mostly because I noticed that Malwarebytes did not detect it but would just like to see an admin response in either troubleshooting forum post about this topic before I actually allow it through defender.

Yea, sorry to clarify mine was detected when just launching bigbox, I let defender keep the trojan in quarantine for now because everything else seems to work as expected.

Windows Defender Also just detected this for me also and says the file that is source of it is the Launchbox.dll

When you disabled it did you ensure to stop the service first and then prevent it's start up under the properties tab in the windows services menu as shown in these screens?

Ok so with that Nahimic service disabled everything appears to now be working correctly on version 11.6, I have restarted Big Box a few times and everything is looking great. It now definitely appears as if that Nahimic service was causing the issue and frankly I can't understand why it's on the computer to begin with when Realtek has it's own service as well and I have never installed or even had a Nahimic program preloaded on this PC before but the service was still apparently packed into my system anyway. I stopped the service and disabled it's start up so if anything changes I will update here, but for now everything is looking fantastic once again, thanks for the time and suggestions to everyone involved.

Not a huge deal, I'm happy to help troubleshoot this problem however I can, launchbox is fantastic software that basically reignited my love of emulation and even inspired me to make a cocktail arcade/virtual pinball table, and has allowed me to have a way to make it much more accessible for my son to play the vast library of classics.

Yea that's my thoughts as well the problem is ridding myself of this demonic piece of coding... Best I can figure is to disable to service but hopefully that means I don't have to do so everytime I turn my computer on, might experiment with that and try 11.6 again to see if that fixes it.

Unfortunately that update did not appear to fix my issue the same visual glitches are persisting in 11.6, reverting back to 11.2 and everything is normal once again, guess I'll wait for a windows or .net update to see if that fixes the issue as reinstalling windows is not really a good option for me at the moment.

Okay going to try and update Nahimic to 1.4.14 which appears to be latest version on the site and then update launchbox and see what happens.

I do have NahimicService.exe on my task manager, however if realtek uses it I can't imagine what I can do about it since my audio set up uses realtek other than wait for an update that fixes the issue.

Okay that worked to get be back to 11.2 without the auto updating occuring and everything is looking normal again now, thank you. Suppose I will wait until a windows or .net core update and try again on a newer version.

Well I am on that core now but when I tried that particular download link and installed the app it caused some major conflicts such as not recognizing keys on my keyboard etc. But going to the dotnet site myself and downloading 3.1.8 from the link there worked just fine. The problem is that I don't have any of those update options checked yet when I install 11.2 over my launchbox built it opens fine in 11.2 until I go to switch to big box and then it thinks I confirmed installing the download. Just a note even if I had the update boxes check it usually asks me if I want to update launchbox and if I pick no it doesn't. However trying to downgrade to 11.2 launches launchbox in 11.2 fine soon as I switch to big box it think I told it to update. I have no doubts the issue can be found and it was extra frustrated because a recent game ready driver update causes big box on 11.6 to appear correctly with no graphical glitches. But after updating some media they are back to how it was before game ready driver update was installed again.

Okay that makes sense thank you

I am having a similar graphical issues I have seen others posting about on the forums ever since the update to 11.4, I have a GeForce GTX 1060 6gb card, latest game ready driver installed, I have tried reinstalling net core and ensuring windows is up to date but nothing seems to be correcting this issue. When first updated to 11.6 big box ran once with no graphical issues and the videos were proper sizes, however after doing a media scrape and starting big box again all the graphical glitches have returned. I'd like to revert back to 11.2 but every time I do so when I switch from launchbox to big box it automatically updates to 11.6 despite all update option being unchecked.

I am also having this same graphical issue ever since the update to 11.4 on big box, none of the following releases have changed anything nor has recent NVIDIA drivers released, nor doing fresh installs of latest .NET core and framework. I was just curious if I can downgrade by running the setup exe or must I uninstall the old version of launchbox, I'm hoping to avoid that as I'd hate to lose the current organization and settings of my games.
