Hey, I've been messing around for that quite a time too now (seeing that some of those "unplayable games" are even easy to play with other emulators, I had done some subfolders with them and .symblinks). But I've to say that I'm pretty tired and it made my updates a little more difficult so I'm gonna start from scratch once again. Did you find any better solution? Or could I help you with it? Hope you are doing well. By the way, a lot of those unplayable games don't have media, so what I did once was just to remove all the games that had 0 media, the issue is that even some of those files have Mame screenshots when it's said that they don't work.

You could maybe replace the bios stock image, that's what I did.

PROBLEM SOLVED!!! For all the people who will have the same issue, what made the difference has been to totally wipe my nvidia settings via 472.12-desktop-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql.exe (latest version at the moment). I presume that I wasn't wrong when I thought that the problem came from DirectX, but Launchbox wasn't able to reinstall it properly by itself and even DDU didn't totally wiped those.

Hey, thanks for your answer. The issue came for the first time after adding it to plugin folder. But even after removing it and a total wipe (of my cores/plugins/...) nothing changed. What is reaaally weird, is that even downloading Launchbox on a second HDD didn't solved the issue. Which may mean that it's a bigger problem (DirectX corruption, .net errors,... the thing is that I've been deleting and reinstalling everything since yesterday, and there seems to be no way for me to make launchbox work again. Did you saw my second answer, where I talk about a Reddit post? It really does look like my issue, but I don't use any of the two mentionned programs. I thought that it might come from my Nvidia Control Panel but they don't seem to disturb my Launchbox.exe... I just wiped all my drivers, all the things "connected" to DirectX, Visual C++,... then reinstalled everything again. (Half of my games will probably not work like this ^^) but... it didn't changed a thing.

Going back to AMD solved the issue. Case (sadly) closed then.

Just tried with safe boot, debogging, deleting some drivers (mostly GPU related)... Still no luck. My issue seems to be related to this one, but I don't use any of those two programs (there isn't almost anything else than games on my cab). I thought that maybe Process Explorer might help me know to find something but it doesn't look like. Eventho, it looks like there could be something causing the issue and making Werfault to show up...

Hey folks! I've been using Launchbox for a while now and wanted to make "cleaner" folders for my games. After downloading the Demulimporter plugin (even if I use Flycast), and copying in my Plugins folder, everything crashed. I then deleted the added files, recreated,... My Launchbox flashes for a second then disappears, and even after copying old backups (that worked), it doesn't solve the issue. So... I presume it doesn't come from my Data folder. I also tried reinstalling over my launchbox folder (11.17 and even rolling back to 11.12), but it didn't helped. Any advice? Thanks in advance! PS1: I've tried to create a "clean install" on my second drive, and it doesn't work neither. Really weird issue, doesn't seem to be firewall related...) PS2: I'm gonna try to rollback to and older version, trying to repair Direct X, C++,... Wait&see. PS3: Removed all my "elevations", started with a brand new Core folder, repaired DX, C++... but didn't worked. PS4: sfc /scannow didn't helped neither... dotnet-sdk-3.1.413 64 and dotnet-sdk-3.1.19 neither... PS5: Well, let's go to bed for today... I hope to find a solution very soon because I will not be able to use my 8TB arcade anymore if I don't solve it...

Problem came back after trying to use Vulkan again. I wiped all my retroarch folder, wiped my amd drivers, but nothing works. Game just runs fine when using GL... and crashes when using Vulkan. Quite weird because my /vulkaninfo looks good. And even my retroarch settings seem to work normally :

I will not make it last forever and will replace them one day but it should look cool like this!

Thank you for your answer! Wow, in fact, I prefeer to hear that because it means that I'm not just blind. I'll then create a junction to the "wallpaper" folder waiting for something better. Once again, thanks for your time.

Hey folks! Excuse me to bother you with such a noobie question. I presume it will have a really fast answer, but I haven't been able to find it by myself. I use another 16/9 screen on top of my cade (1920x1080) to a marquee, but I haven't been able to set it up correctly. It usually shows game boxes (vertical) that don't fill the whole screen. Is there a way to make him choose in priority things like wallpapers or things like that? It would look better but I can't find the "marquee" option in Launchbox. Oh by the way, I thought that it also could be a really good way to show combos/game manuals/etc, heard about any project which could help me in my creations? Thanks in advance for your time and answers. Have a nice day!

Up and running! Thank you very much @neil9000!! Topic closed then.

Yeah. Just saw the issue (i think). I do have the files but they aren't recognized as the "good" files. Gonna reinstall them asap.

The only ones that are missing are the optional ones. So I presume it isn't related...
