  1. Wrapped up my setup without any further issues. Thank you everyone for your help!
  2. Ok, I've gotten partway through setup here (maybe half way.) Here's what I've been doing: 1. In Launchbox: Import Roms from Folder, set Emulator, Import Meta Data 2. Test a rom. Exit. 3. Close Launchbox and make sure it exits properly and within a reasonable timeframe. 4. Open Bigbox. Test ROM. Configure an controller buttons that aren't working how I want. 5. Exit, check and make sure Bigbox exits properly and within a reasonable timeframe. 6. Rinse and repeat for each system. During step 4, while I was trying to configure a control to exit the ROM screen Bigbox unexpectedly crashed. I checked Task Manager and it exited completely, no processes running. Now when I open Big Box, just like before, it will load all the systems and if I try to open a system or a menu, or pretty much anything but navigate the systems it crashes again. Would there be any way to reset Bigbox control mapping to default values without opening it? Say delete or replace a file? I'm familiar with editing XML files so if it comes to that I'm cool with messing with it.
  3. Thanks for the tip! I have tried this with the old one. (I moved it to an SD card I had laying around). Unfortunately, 7 Zip Consoles and Launchbox remained open for 20+ minutes after exiting on that instance as well. On my new one, I'll add stuff gradually and test as I go. If I do something that reproduces this issue I'll be sure to post for everyone.
  4. Thanks, Jason. I have tried unticking this setting but it seems the 7 Zip Console, Launchbox, and Big Box apps remain open even after I exit without a crash. I let it run about 15 minutes and no change. I tested a minute... If I close the 7-zip Console processes the big box and launch box processes close on their own, but not the other way around. If I close Launchbox and/or bigbox the 7 zip console processes remain running. I also noticed that there is no Launchbox listed under my installed programs, so I figured it might be worth mothballing my old install by renaming it (Launchbox-old) and install another one and try it to see if I get the same result. I don't have that problem on the new one. No customization at all except I've installed the license, just one emulator and just one rom, no meta data.
  5. Hah! Thanks. I gave that a try already though. Crossed my fingers. Didn't work, unfortunately.
  6. Well, the first time it happened, I let it go for a couple hours and came back. This time it was Launchbox. 7-Zip Consoles (two instances) and Launchbox were still going under processes, so I killed them. Over the next few hours I worked on customizing launchbox and then launching Big Box and making some customizations. Each time (regardless of app) same issue when I exited the application, even if I closed it with "Exit" instead of clicking the X on the window. I waited 30 minutes, then again 20 minutes. No changes. I poked through config settings to see if I could figure out something that might be causing a delay but I'm pretty new to this so found nothing... Eventually I got this this point where now if I try to open options menu in Big Box it just closes (well sort of) and never closes out 7-Zip Console or processes. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to scrap everything and start over but I'd like to try and figure out what's causing the problem so I don't waste more time and have to start over again.
  7. I've recently purchased a LaunchBox Premium license (lifetime one). Set everything up using the tutorials and such... Did some basic testing in Launchbox and now I'm working on getting Bigbox configured. I'm running into a few issues I can't sort out. I've checked the forums but didn't find anything. - Running Windows 10 Home, 64-bit on my PC - Neither Launchbox nor Bigbox EXE seem to properly close on exit. If I close, then try to re-open, I get a message from Windows saying it's still running and to wait. It never closes. I eventually have to kill it with task manager. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it either, but I notice two 7-Zip Console services running concurrently in addition to the launchbox/bigbox each time. If I kill those, they pop-up again when I open either. - I've had to keep adjusting my mapping to my wireless Xbox controller and now I think I've damaged some of the core files from aforementioned issue since it will not properly exit. I can launch Bigbox, but as soon as I try to go into the options menu the GUI disappears and same behavior as if I closed it. This behavior has changed since I first started working with it. Was working fine for a few hours... Any ideas what I can do to remedy these two things?
