So I'll skip through all the extra pleasantries just to get to the jist. (but with that said, thank you for considering helping me).
I have a 3 month old PC, I've been an IT professional for 42 years. I know what I'm doing with everything except Autocad and Emulation.
I've been trying for 4 versions of Launchbox to get it to even LOAD and I keep coming up empty.
I load the installer (with and without admin), I let it install, I try 900 different versions of the dotnet core, I follow all the directions I can find in the forums and no matter what I do, BEST result I get is the little horizontal window telling me that Launchbox is loading (which it never does and vanishes after 10 seconds) or absolutely nothing happens AT ALL, which is where I'm at now.
With that said I AM running Windows 11 (which I've seen far too many people reference as being problematic), the thing nobody has delved into yet, is WHY some Windows 11 installs work. Regardless, I don't want this to be the pit we fall into. I keep seeing the posts saying that you will help us if we are willing to follow your directions, so that's what I'll do.
Again, all I'm trying to do is get Launchbox to even LOAD (or Bigbox, cause neither one loads).
If this is a royal pain in the you know what, I've got cash, I'll buy whatever the best license is.
Sorry, just frustrated after 3 months and I still can't get it operational.
