Fixed the issue. What I did was first removed the Mame 0.269 folder from the plugins folder but when I restarted Launchbox I would get the same error and it would create the folder and file again. So I decided to just MOVE the Mame emulator folder out of Launchbox then removed the plungins mame 0.269 folder again. Ran Launchbox 13.16 update. Started up Launchbox and it was working again so I decided to do a new install of Mame 0.269 to the same location and then copied over my original mame folder and overwrote all the files hoping I wouldn't have to set up mame all over again. Started up Launchbox and no more error. I'm sure there were needless steps to repair it and get it going again but that's just what I did in case anyone else runs into the same issue. I still have no idea why it happened or what caused it. I'm just glad I'm back to gaming I get the following error after updating to 13.16. Launchbox/Plugins/Mame 0.269/Unbroken.Launchbox.Windows.Mame.dll could not be loaded because windows is preventing access to it for security reasons. Please right click on the file in windows explorer, select properties and check or uncheck the box to unblock the DLL Everything was working fine 5 minutes ago before update on 13.15. I can't find anywhere under properties that has to do with blocking the DLL. Read only and Hidden are both unchecked. Under security tab System has Full control. Edit: I've done some online searches and found that there is an unblock button under properties General Tab for some files but the button is not there for me on the DLL file. I'm running windows 10 on my cab. Any Ideas? Thank you.

Wow! nice call there. I have no clue how that was unchecked. Never had that option open before. Thank you for the help!

I am using the premium version of LB. I have the video themes playing in Big Box but I can't get the video snaps to show in my LB details pane. I've tried checking the Tools>Options>Media>Video Priorities and they are checked. I have also selected different games and clicked edit then looked under Media>Videos and all have video snap path shown. I've tried refreshing all missing media. Is there anything I am missing to get the snaps to show up and play in the details pane in LB? Thanks

Thank you! Worked perfectly. I did just that. Added the code from the "run after" to the Daphnebatch file and removed the run after batch file. Cheers! ? I could have sworn I tried /w without the /b and it would just hang on the command box while the game started in the background. That was my whole point of using the /b. Then when I added a /w it would nullify the /b and hang again. Maybe I forgot the "". Guess that was the one thing I skipped over. Thank you again! Made my day.

I seem to be having a different problem when trying to run additional apps than what I've been able to find on the forums I'm going into LB and selecting game > edit >additional apps for this. JoyToKey and "Automatically Run Before Main Application" is working and starting it just fine. Then I have a JoyToKeyclose.bat file and checked "Automatically Run After Main Application". What happens is that it is not waiting for for Daphne to close before it runs so I get JoyToKey to load but then immediately the .bat shuts it down. The testing I've done shows that it's just not waiting. I can uncheck the "run after" and JoyToKey remains loaded and running like it should. I can also run the JoyToKeyclose.bat manually after I close the game and it shuts it down like it's supposed to. This is both in LB and BB. Using BB I can go to additional apps and close it after I leave the game but where it gets frustrating is that while JoyToKey is running it causes BB controls to be overly sensitive. Even with a quick tap on the joystick or d-pad most often jumps a couple selections. Makes it difficult to choose the additional apps option in BB most of the time. I'm dealing with it but I was hoping there is something simple I am overlooking that's causing my issue. This is my start line from my daphnebatch.bat that I use to start Daphne inside LB. Could the /b switch be causing it to think it shut down? I looked everywhere and I just can't seem to find an answer. I'd love any thoughts or ideas on this.
