Lol. I agree. It's for someone else who wants to save. 😉 Thanks again for the help. Greatly appreciated.

Ah. Yes, that was the problem. I was trying to load instead of save. Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction! Does it makes sense that the default launchbox pause screen would incorrectly have the "Save State" option mapped to Shift+F7 (MAME default to load)?

I'm unable to get MAME games to save. I get the same error no matter what game I try. For example, if I try to save while playing Galaga, I get the following error: "Error: Load state file galaga\quick.sta not found" This happens no matter how I try to save the state...via Launchbox Pause Screen, via Shift + F7, or even if I enable autosave directly in MAME. Each option gives the same error. Here is some additional information that might be helpful: I have a fresh install of launchbox 13.18. Launchbox automatically downloaded and configured MAME 0.272 for me. I DO NOT have launchbox configured to upload MAME high scores to the launchbox community leaderboards. I did not have an \MAME\sta directory by default. I created one and got the same error. I manually updated the mami,ini file to add statepath and savegame settings. Same error. Any help is greatly appreciated.
