Just as I gave up, I found the solution. So after realizing that while it is displaying in Big Box mode the problem is still that it's not properly pulling data. It's able to know that items have achievements because that is pulled from Steam. It does not update NEW achievements, nor can it pull achievement information. I'm able to import my steam library so there isn't a problem with communications between the web-api for Launchbox AND the Steam system. So that tells me, when a "Achievement Scan" is initiated, it goes to the service, logs in with the api key (automatic credential there, good shit) but the comes back with nothing. So the problem started looking at the fact that Steam was not sharing the information. I did some digging and found that the steam profile while set to public has had it's game information set to "Friends Only". I turned that off, rescanned and relogged into Steam. Works. So moral of this story, always check the permissions and privacy settings on all involved systems.

Alright, so I did a clean install and reinstalled twice. New Directory, old directory was erased out Registry Entries were deleted, though nothing seemed to indicate what I was looking for. Installed in new directory. 1st Attempt: New Directory Used credentials for logging into the database system Used previous licensing file. Used Steam and GOG credentials on start up wizard. Still same problem. 2nd Attempt: Cleared out new directory for reinstallation Only used license file for wizard For some reason upon set up even without setting up steam or my launchboxdb credentials I was still automatically importing my library which was weird. Deleted all, imported games. GOG has a achievements Rom files are ok and have achievements Steam still does not show achievements. Despite the ironically showing the achievement icon next to game titles. Checked Big Box Mode: Still shows achievements, but I did notice that a game I had earned achievements on in Steam, is not reflecting earned achievements in big box mode. I'm starting to think that it's an access issue. Because despite being "visible" in Big Box, it's not showing earned. Any other thoughts?

Greetings, I have been attempting to figure out why and I am at a loss. Achievements have been scanned and enabled. Retroachievements work GOG Achievements work Steam Achievements will show up as "No Achievements" while in desktop mode. The Achievement ICON Still shows up. On some themes that show achievement progress, some games still show the progress. Achievements still how up in Big Box Mode. Themes Tried multiple themes, uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing. Steam Re-established the API Key and the Profile URL Able to scan for steam games and successfully import. Settings.xml Does show steam games as to having "True" for achievements. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Launchbox Did not remove the xml files. Achievements not consistent with big box mode vs. desktop in this situation: Ex: Game I had shows up as "No Achievements" but in some themes where as some games have an achievement progress this game example does not. If I pull up the game in Big Box mode, I can see the achievement progress, and if I load it back to desktop mode with some themes that progress is not reflecting. Any thoughts on where I can look next or is anyone aware of a fix that may already exist? I am believing this is not so much that the apis are not talking because whatever bigbox mode does to display the achievements is actually working. But for the life of me I can't seem to figure out what got corrupted or wrong to prevent the desktop mode from actually displaying achievements OR even updating once achievements have been looked at. But still knows enough to indicate achievements.
