Yep, the beta cycle for 13.28 became 14.0, given the amount that went into it and the amount of testing, we thought it warrented a good ol’ version bump You can read more about the decision to do this here: https://feedback.launchbox-app.com/changelog/launchbox-for-windows-140

Hi there, With today’s release of LaunchBox for Windows 14.0, the fix for this is now available to everyone. We’ve completely revamped the startup video process so things should be back to normal You can update to the latest version from within the app to receive this. Notes on the release can be found below: https://feedback.launchbox-app.com/changelog/launchbox-for-windows-140 Please let us know if anyone is continuing to experience this issue, and thanks for bearing with us while we go that sorted.

The new list view is fully themeable, and custom theme developers can update their themes to support it LaunchBox Themes & Media Manager now opens immediately and loads themes and media packs in the background with a clear loading state LocalDb startup work has been optimized to reduce startup overhead during local metadata database initialization and lookups Revamped the startup window with a newer WPF based design and clearer startup status messages Improved metadata search when editing a game by showing best matches first, then other possible matches as they load Improved image group handling for platforms, playlists, and platform categories, including a new “Use Default” option to quickly clear a custom image group and return to the global default Improved LaunchBox and Big Box instance detection so separate installs or root folders can run independently without blocking each other LaunchBox and Big Box now save additional diagnostic information locally after certain severe crashes, helping the support team investigate problems that previously left no useful report Improved Options page performance and search responsiveness Improved ROM import parsing and welcome wizard import handoff behavior Improved startup/shutdown app handling and switching between LaunchBox and Big Box Updated the Windows build to use newer native launchers and the .NET 10 runtime/tooling stack Video playback now uses the LaunchBox Media Engine for VLC or Windows Media Player, with the legacy FFME playback engine and its bundled components removed Big Box startup video playback is now handled inside Big Box itself, making startup videos more reliable on some hardware configurations, including certain Windows handheld devices The default Big Box theme has been updated with new visual elements for Filter / Sort, including sort context labels and a redesigned popup, and the new controls are fully themeable for custom Big Box themes The default LaunchBox theme now uses a new Image Grid implementation with better performance, clearer selection highlighting, more reliable image refresh behavior, and a new Configure Layout option; custom themes can choose to adopt the new Image Grid, while existing custom themes continue using the previous implementation 3D model browsing now feels smoother and more responsive, with better drag handling, steadier carousel navigation, and better behavior across multi monitor setups Automatic ROM Import now runs in the background with clearer progress, completion, and error notifications Embedded browser features now use WebView2, improving compatibility with modern web content and reducing older Chromium dependencies LaunchBox game details now update more smoothly while browsing large libraries, reducing unnecessary reloads when moving quickly through games, platforms, and playlists Related Games now loads recommendations and thumbnails more efficiently Auto play music and LEDBlinky updates are more reliable when changing selections quickly Context menus now open more quickly after startup and view changes Big Box view transitions and 3D FlowModel navigation are smoother and more responsive during rapid browsing Big Box wheels and other artwork heavy views now prioritize selected and visible images for faster, more responsive loading during navigation Big Box background music discovery now runs in the background so scanning larger music folders does not delay startup or navigation Higher resolution fullscreen screenshots now scale smoothly to the available display, while lower resolution screenshots retain crisp pixel art scaling Plugin Manager now opens immediately and loads the online plugin catalog in the background with a clear loading state Windows CRC storage failures now show a clearer message identifying a drive or file system problem instead of appearing as a generic startup, folder, or plugin error Steam games and Steam linked additional applications now launch through Steam while preserving configured command line arguments Error and crash reporting has been modernized, with separate options for sending automatic error reports and optional performance diagnostics Added a themeable BlurredVideoBackground element that safely provides blurred video backdrops for custom Big Box themes across supported video players Fixed: Editing an additional version on a game that has not been saved yet no longer crashes, and game save detection now uses the platform currently selected in the game edit window The popped out game details and platform details windows now open in front of the main LaunchBox window instead of appearing behind it, and can still be moved behind LaunchBox afterwards LaunchBox now preserves existing bundled Default theme files and shows a controlled storage error instead of crashing when those files cannot be refreshed during startup LaunchBox and Big Box no longer crash when game controller metadata is missing, inaccessible, or invalid; missing controller metadata is repaired automatically in the background when possible LaunchBox no longer crashes during startup when a configured Steam game library drive is unavailable LaunchBox and Big Box no longer crash with a threading error when two cloud syncs start at the same moment, such as when a game and its emulator exit together or when closing the app as a game exits The RetroAchievements menu is now available in custom LaunchBox themes, and RetroAchievements profile images load and refresh reliably Emulator and tool folders no longer leak into LaunchBox’s own working directory, which could cause managed emulator updates to install into the wrong folder Long running Big Box Attract Mode sessions no longer leak image worker resources that could cause wheel images to disappear or exhaust Windows UI resources The alphanumeric index in Big Box’s default theme shows its letters again, instead of an empty bar with only the highlighted selection visible Rapid navigation into Big Box Game Details no longer occasionally leaves menus, metadata, images, or videos empty MAME high scores launched from Big Box now parse and upload correctly Bezel Project downloads for MAME and RetroArch no longer fail because the downloaded ZIP remains locked during extraction Steam game discovery no longer reports an error when Steam replaces an application manifest during scanning Automatic PlayStation Vita imports now use game titles from Vita3K metadata instead of displaying title IDs Installed plugin and media pack versions that are newer than the online catalog version no longer incorrectly appear as available updates Several Xbox/UWP scanning, startup junction, Dolphin integration, plugin resource, and media extraction edge cases have been hardened to reduce crashes and noisy error reporting Resolved Big Box theme resource loading issues for themes loaded from their original installed location Steam media downloads now clean up temporary files more reliably Corrected platform alternate name matching in the local metadata database Corrected playlist image group overrides so playlists with duplicate display names use the correct unique playlist entry VLC video preview audio now begins promptly with a short fade instead of cutting off the opening portion of videos Big Box screen transitions now animate when navigating forward into platforms, games, and game details, and when leaving screens that have no video such as the system menu and options. Previously most of these switched instantly with no transition, whichever video playback engine was selected Big Box screen transitions no longer drop intermittently when leaving a view whose theme nests its own video hosting transition area, such as navigating from a platform wheel into a game wheel. This mainly affected custom themes and could make a transition appear to work sometimes and not others

Sorry for the delay, 14.0 is now officially out, should be able to grab it through the normal means. Full details on all the changes here: - https://feedback.launchbox-app.com/changelog/launchbox-for-windows-140

Hiya, we have a dedicated troubleshooting guide for this specific error. There isn't a perfect fix for it just but it walks through how to debug it and disable a setting that should temporarily address it for you: - "Out of Memory" error after resuming from hibernation in LaunchBox or Big Box?

No need to re-install, a fresh restart should ensure all instances of the app are closed, though if you continue to see that we have more details on it here: - https://feedback.launchbox-app.com/help/articles/0507346-troubleshooting-another-instance-is-already-running-error

Thanks, this is already fixed and will be in beta-6 Could you elaborate on this, does it happen all the time, or only within certain sections? If you have a screenshot handy showing it that would be very useful. Cheers,

Hi Folks, This may not quite be what you're asking for since it's not for selecting launch screens per-say, but just to call out in the upcoming 13.28 release we're introducing the following feature: Improvement: Improved LaunchBox and Big Box instance detection so separate installs or root folders can run independently without blocking each other You can check it out in the latest beta which is available right now: Would this help in this scenario?

100%, and apologies if it's come across that way, we do our best to keep an eye on the forum but this has got to a point where there's clearly a recurring issue that we want to resolve properly. I can't promise exactly how long this will take but rest assured well do our best to help try and get to the bottom of this. You've already provided a ton of useful info but I'll certainly reach out if we need anything else or have a breakthrough on it. Feel free to DM me if you have any other concerns but we'll keep y'all posted.

Thanks for the reminder. We’ve had a few folks out recently, and we’ve also been heads down working on the upcoming 13.28 beta cycle, which includes a couple of structural changes under the hood. That said, regarding the database work we discussed, we’ve now fleshed out most of the common requests based on everyone’s feedback over on our feature board, which you can access here: https://feedback.launchbox-app.com/?b=679a6bbe1b2011c4928c567b Many of you have already supplied a ton of valuable input, so there’s no need to do anything else. However, if you’d like to, you’re more than welcome to head over there to elaborate on or vote for any existing requests, or submit anything you feel we’ve missed. Of course, simply having the requests listed isn’t enough. However, given the somewhat messy nature of the forum and how easily good information can get lost, we wanted to make sure everything was properly documented there so we can keep future additions well scoped. Outside of that, work is already underway on a fully restructured moderation and guidelines resource over on our new Help Center site, which you can see here: https://feedback.launchbox.gg/help A lot of this is still internal and being drafted right now, since we're looking to release it together rather than as things are ready. But we’re hoping it will provide a much clearer and more structured set of rules, guidelines, and resources for both moderators and submitters. As you rightly mentioned, we do intend to open those up for discussion once we have completed docs ready to share. For full transparency, I don’t have an accurate ETA on when all of this work will be completed or which additions we’ll be making to the Games Database first. As I mentioned, we’re currently very focused on the structural changes coming in the 13.28 release. That said, I’ll do my best to keep you all updated as we’re able to implement these changes and involve the community as much as we can.

Hi Folks, Thanks for the updates on this, and apologies for the delayed follow-up here. We’ve had a few folks out recently, but rest assured we are following these reports closely and doing our best to reproduce the issue on our end. @neosean99 , apologies as I know you’ve submitted multiple detailed reports, which have been very useful. I also want to acknowledge that you’ve already tried the controller-related suggestions multiple times, and I’m sorry if it felt like we weren’t fully hearing that. No need to confirm anything else for now, as we’re using your existing reports to try and nail this down. For everyone else who has been adding info, that has also been very helpful. For full transparency, we have not been able to reproduce this exact behavior consistently yet but we are trying our best to get to the bottom of this. Based on the version range and the behavior being described, we’re continuing to look closely at input handling, especially around controller detection/polling and device state changes. At the same time, we’re keeping an open mind in case there is another contributing factor or interaction we haven’t identified yet. I know this is incredibly frustrating, we're continuing to try and nail this down will share updates as soon as we have something meaningful to report. Really appreciate y'all bearing with us here.

Hi Folks, Thanks for all the continued reports here. We wanted to provide an update on where we’re at with this beta. First, we want to acknowledge the rocky start to beta-2. We really appreciate all the reports, but apologies that many more folks than usual seem to be having issues, particularly around performance. This beta updated some of our core services under the hood, but a lot of issues appear to be largely stem from our new grid implementation. For some context, we completely rebuilt the grid view for this beta with a focus on much snappier responses when quickly scrolling through incredibly large libraries. To get to this point, we had to make the decision to use a fixed grid size (which you can adjust on a per-section basis). While our performance tests have been largely positive compared to the old grid, we are seeing reports of unintended side effects, particularly around images loading into the grid and issues with surrounding elements like badges, which gives the perception of decreased performance. We know that’s not the only related issue, but we initially had trouble reproducing it internally on one of our many builds, as it appeared to be largely library-dependent. That said, after much trial and error, we’ve now managed to recreate a build exhibiting similar issues and already have several fixes in place to help mitigate them. We also want to acknowledge other issues such as the large number of reports around controller issues in Big Box, which have also been fixed internally. We know this only scratches the surface of what people have been reporting, and we’ve been following your feedback closely. Beta-3 includes a number of changes aimed at addressing the biggest issues we’ve seen so far. We may not have fixed everything just yet, but we’re hopeful it will eliminate the major pain points so we can focus on what’s left. Thank you all for helping us test this. We know this beta has been a bit rockier than usual given the scope of the changes, but your reports have been invaluable in helping us identify and address the biggest performance issues, along with a variety of other fixes. We’re hoping to have beta-3 available as soon as possible so you can probably halt with the beta-2 reports for now, but we’d love to hear whether those who experienced issues with beta-2 notice improvements. We’ll keep you all posted once it’s ready.

Hey all, sorry for the delay and issues following up on this, it sounds like enough people are having this issue but we're having a hard time reproducing this on our end. Based on the version cutoff you’re describing, this may be related to controller input handling changes that started around 13.24, especially DirectInput controller polling. It may also be affected by video/audio playback in some setups, so we’d like to try and gather a bit more detail. We'd love it if you can try the following (I know some of you already have, but for those who haven't) In LaunchBox, go to Tools > Options > Game Controllers. Uncheck Enable Game Controllers. Restart LaunchBox completely. Test whether mouse movement, mouse clicks, and keyboard typing return to normal. Please also test Big Box separately: Open Big Box. Go to Options > Controller. Disable controller support there as well. Restart Big Box. Test whether the delay still happens. When replying, please include: Which LaunchBox version works normally for you, and which version first shows the issue. Whether disabling Enable Game Controllers fixes it after a full restart. Whether you use any controller-related software, such as Steam Input, DS4Windows, reWASD, vJoy, ViGEm, JoyToKey, Xpadder, or similar. What controllers or input devices are connected, including wheels, pedals, flight sticks, fight sticks, Bluetooth controllers, or virtual controllers. Whether the issue happens with all controllers unplugged. Whether the issue happens in LaunchBox, Big Box, or both. Whether you have auto-play videos or auto-play music enabled. Which video playback engine you’re using, if you know. If disabling game controllers fully resolves it, that is very useful information and points us toward the controller polling/input path. If it still happens with controller support disabled and all controllers unplugged, please mention that clearly, because that would push us more toward the video/audio playback side instead. Please let us know and we'll try and narrow this down.

Hi Folks, thanks for all the reports, we're digging in to the issues reported with beta-2 and apologies for the issues here. In addition to @faeran 's request for those experiencing performance issues, one of the biggest things that will help when it comes to reported sluggish performance would be a screen recording of the issue should the impacted performance (even better if you have downgraded, to show how it compares to the previous beta or 13.27). If you aren't comfortable sharing screen recordings here, feel free to ping a DM to me (@AstroBob) & @faeran. Thanks all for helping to test these, we're working to get out beta-3 which addresses some of these immediate issues.

Correct, you can use the Image Height (Section Override) to adjust the spacing for not just specific platforms, but individual categories & playlists too.

Not yet, but this is a, interesting idea. It would have to stay performant and would probably need to be a uniform image type to remain consistent (possibly a good use for the icon image type), but I scoped it out here if you want to upvote it: - https://feedback.launchbox.gg/p/optional-image-column-in-list-view

Version 1.22 - Released May 28th 2026 Release Summary Release Summary: https://feedback.launchbox.gg/changelog/launchbox-for-android-122 Full Changelog: https://www.launchbox-app.com/android-about/change-log Release Video: 👇 New Features: Steam game importing for the new Windows platform. This lets you bring your Steam library into LaunchBox for Android and launch supported games through compatible Android Windows launchers Steam media support. Steam games can now use Steam artwork and trailers, including box fronts, clear logos, backgrounds, and videos, giving imported Steam games better media coverage out of the box Steam library update support. LaunchBox can now compare your Windows/Steam platform against your Steam library to add newly owned games and optionally remove games you no longer own, including a Refresh Games option in Manage Steam Options to customize Steam imports. You can choose exactly which Steam games to import, whether to include family shared games, search the LaunchBox Games Database, prioritize Steam metadata, prioritize Steam media, or allow duplicate imports A new Security system that lets you lock down platform and game management features behind a PIN, with extensive configuration options available under Options > Security Platforms: Windows, Arduboy, Sega Model 3, Uzebox, WASM-4, and Microsoft Xbox Emulators: GameHub Lite, GameNative, Pizza Boy SC Pro, Azahar (Vanilla), Linkboy, Lynx.Emu, PICO-8: Android, PICO-8: Picpic, Aethersx2 (Turnip), SkyEmu, MelonDualDS, YabaSanshiro Pro, Vita3k (ikhoeyZX), Super3, X1 Box, aPS3e, and eka2l1 RetroArch core mappings for Arduboy, Uzebox, and WASM-4. These platforms should now be easier to import and launch when using RetroArch A visual update indicator for themes, showing a green badge on the Manage Themes menu item and next to individual themes when updates are available Improvements: Steam account management with Steam Guard approval handling, cancel support while waiting for approval, a safer logout confirmation, and more reliable saved sessions Steam media and trailer loading during imports, making Steam artwork and videos more reliable when importing larger libraries Streaming video support. LaunchBox now handles more streaming video formats, including HLS streams, which helps Steam trailers and other online videos play more reliably Updated Optimize Library behavior so star ratings across your entire library now refresh automatically when running an Update Library scan Fixed: Fixed Local and Cloud filters so games appear in the correct place. Games with local files now show under Local, while Cloud only shows games that exist only on a configured network/cloud location Fixed a possible crash when returning to LaunchBox. This could happen if notification or data services were not available yet when the app resumed Fixed Security settings so PIN changes are saved immediately, clearing a PIN disables Security, and protected menu actions use the correct PIN requirements Fixed an issue that prevented setting a Scoped Storage path when the app was running as a homescreen launcher Fixed possible image resize conflicts during media downloads. This could prevent media from failing or becoming inconsistent when multiple images were being processed at the same time Fixed the Add to Playlist popup so playlist items are scrollable and accessible Fixed Browse Steam Image capitalization and allowed the Steam image browser to go back from loading and error states Fixed numeric password input handling in the Steam credential login popup Fixed scoped-storage handling for additional applications. Launching alternate versions or additional apps should now use the correct file path or URI Fixed scoped-storage lookup to use the selected application path. This helps when launching an additional app or alternate version instead of the main game file Fixed the built-in Vita3k Android emulator launch command

Heya, thanks for the suggestion. Just to confirm, I'm assuming this is referring specifically to the Auto Save Backup features, since that is the only thing that will take up space on disk if you have this enabled. Let me know and we'll get this written up on our feature board. Cheers,

Thanks folks, confirmed this indeed an issue that we'll get fixed up. Can follow along with this post here to get notified of any updates to it: - https://feedback.launchbox.gg/p/game-details-pop-out-window-opening-behind-launchbox Cheers,

Hey @SolarisSpell sorry for the issue here, you're not alone in that we have seen instances where the local stats and cloud stats can get out of whack, which unfortunately means why you try to hook them up again, the cloud stats constantly take president, which is sounds like what is happening here. We don't have a great user-facing workaround for this at the moment, though do have a request to allow users to clear their own cloud stats, and esentially start with a fresh sync from their local data. - https://feedback.launchbox.gg/p/reset-clear-cloud-game-statistics In the meantime though, if you want to DM me with your games DB account email, we can try clearing the cloud stats on your account from our end, which should allow you to do a fresh sync. Drop me a DM if you want to give that a try

Thanks for flagging this, Telemetry.txt is a temporary troubleshooting log that may appear for users who downloaded 13.27 during a short window after release. Early builds of this release were unintentionally creating that telemetry output locally in the LaunchBox root folder instead of handling it normally. So this would only appear if you were one of those users who downloaded it during that initial window before it was fixed. To resolve it, you can download the current 13.27 installer from our website and install it directly over your existing LaunchBox installation. After reinstalling, you can safely delete Telemetry.txt from the LaunchBox folder and it should stop reappearing. Give us a shout if that doesn't work for you

Version 13.27 - Released May 13th 2026 Release Summary Release Summary: https://feedback.launchbox.gg/changelog/launchbox-for-windows-1327 Full Changelog: https://www.launchbox-app.com/about/changelog

the game menu, giving you control over whether playlist actions appear in the game options menu Local metadata package refreshes now use SHA-256 verification with retry handling and clearer staged progress, replacing the previous longer validation flow with a faster and more reliable process Improvements: Ubisoft imports have been refined with better product filtering, name cleanup, and settings handling for a more reliable import experience Xbox storefront importing has seen some reliability improvements with lookups, caching, and import handling Fullscreen image viewing has been improved with pixel-perfect integer scaling, image detail labels, and better fullscreen monitor behavior Related Games and Game Details performance have been improved by deferring expensive loading until needed 3D model viewing, carousel browsing, and media list performance have been improved for smoother browsing in media-heavy views Updated Dolphin integration to better support newer versions Improved ROM prioritization when combining multiple versions of the same game during import, using a smarter ranking pipeline to better select the ideal default ROM Extract ROMs now preserves the original archive folder name inside the temp directory, improving save path consistency in emulators such as RetroArch FinalBurn Neo importer now automatically unchecks Extract ROMs for the emulator associated platform to prevent unnecessary extraction LaunchBox system tray support is now free for all users, with options to always show the tray icon, minimize to tray, and close to tray Added a new option to disable the dynamic Play button and use a static Play button instead The All Games section will now properly update to match the selected LaunchBox language Big Box popup and plugin badge handling has been made more reliable EmuMovies authentication and media download flows have been improved with more reliable login gating, retry handling, and messaging Fixed: Steam trailer downloads have been restored with updated handling for Steam’s newer streamed trailer delivery, along with better trailer selection, improved fallback handling, and broader MP4 compatibility across imports and media downloads GOG media downloads now work reliably for icons, posters, and screenshots Like and unlike support now works correctly for Themes and Media Packs in the Media Manager, making it easier to give feedback on community-created downloads directly from LaunchBox Automatic ROM imports now better respect disabled auto-import settings and more reliably avoid creating duplicate games or duplicate additional apps when scanning for new ROMs Improved Big Box video playback stability when using FFMPEG, resolving rare crashes related to video disposal and media cleanup Crashes in Big Box when navigating between views with Windows Media Player video playback enabled Issue where auto play music could cause the UI to lock up after Big Box opened Big Box no longer keeps reloading new instances of the same System Menu Big Box now behaves better when screensaver timing overlaps with popups and other overlays Bulk Edit Wizard issue that could trigger a crash style error

has been hardened against scenarios where it could fail to open Potential null reference issue when saving a new emulator The bundled Xbox - White controller input pack no longer incorrectly reports that an update is available Operation Wolf now correctly shows MAME High Score support

Hi there, Thanks for the great suggestion here. At the moment, this isn’t currently possible within LaunchBox Android. While the app does support NAS setups, there’s no support yet for consumer cloud storage providers such as Google Drive or similar services. That said, we really like the idea, especially for Android where storage space is often much more limited and users may be moving between multiple handhelds, tablets, or phones. Being able to maintain a single centralized ROM library in the cloud rather than duplicating games across every device would definitely be a nice quality of life improvement. We’ve gone ahead and created a formal feature request for this so it can be tracked properly internally. - https://feedback.launchbox.gg/p/cloud-storage-support-for-android-game-libraries Please feel free to upvote the request on the feedback board to help show interest, and you’ll automatically receive updates if there’s any future progress on it 🙂 Cheers!

Hi Folks, thanks for the additional reports here. We're continuing to work on an entire rebuild of the startup videos implementation to address these issues. Unfortunately we don't have an exact ETA right now, since it's require a fair bit of testing and reworking, but we're hopeful the new system will improve on the old startup videos implementation in many ways. We're gearing up for a 13.27 release this month, and unfortunately it hasn't made it into this one, but please be sure to upvote the known issue post and we'll notify you as soon as we have updates for it: 👉 Known Issue: Big Box Startup Videos Not Playing Reliably https://feedback.launchbox.gg/p/known-issue-big-box-startup-videos-not-playing-reliably Thanks for bearing with us while we get this sorted.

Good to know I wasn’t the only one who immediately tried this once it was released! But yeah unfortunately doesn’t look like command line support is fully there yet. I’m seeing the same behaviour as you, and from other reports online that it loads the game but the OS always seems to take precident ontop. I can’t imagine it wouldn’t be supported in the future, but definately keen to hear when that happens, it is a great emulator!
