So tried the firewall exception. This worked for awhile and now its back. I will try with the new beta version with the additional logging today.

Sorry about not reporting this issue, I am still experiencing it on 13.16 release. I just rebooted my computer and it updated so I checked again. This is the error message that pops up as soon as importing (game name) shows up in the bottom corner "An Error occurred while trying to import games: Object reference not set to an instance of object". The video posted is an accurate depiction of the problem. I tried a couple of times in a row and experienced the same problem. I think this is the relevent part of the log Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Desktop.MenuActions.ImportRomFilesMenuAction.InstantiateSupportedSpecification(Object ) 2024-09-17 08:22:57 AM FIRST CHANCE

Its probably me but not sure where to look. Any help would be appreciated.

When I try to drag a game into Launchbox to add it I get the following error "An Error occured while trying to import games Object reference not set to instance of object" This was happening during the betas for this release so I turned off betas and went back to a release that worked which was 13.15. Just put it back to 13.15 and it still works not sure whats going on.

It is in Launchbox. It seems to be occurring when I add and alter entries of games in various platforms. I will do some more testing today to see if I can get more information. I also had the issue with Scrolling when things seem to become unresponsive. I have backed off to 13.3 release version and left it altered a few entries and left it overnight and the memory seems to be about 2 to 3 gigs.

I have updated to 13.4 Beta 3 today and all of the sudden the memory application keeps going up and up until the computer becomes slow and unusable. It use to sit around a stable 6 to 7 gigs but now it just keeps going up. This was not happening on beta 2.

I updated to 13.4 Beta 1 and now beta 2. I have found in the "ALL" platform category I have 2 images that are overlapping (might be more, it happens to be where I am currently updating information) this just started with these updates.

Not sure if this still works with the latest version but I followed the instructions and the images do not show up. Is there a step I need to take or an option that needs to be set?
