Fixed it Created game called shutdown with batch file to shutdown under a dos game option, then removed the "Run as Dos" Exited from Launchbox via my shutdown batch file returned to Launchbox and Game Shutdown batch file was saved correctly. Andy

Joe Again thanks for your help. I used the batch file you suggested and Launchbox starts fine used a shortcut so ran it minimized so no command prompt Created my Shutdown batch file under games but when I exit launchbox it still doesn't save anything. I'm lost to understand why its not saving this Batch file under games. It does now show batch file as available and clicking it under games works It just cant be saved. The whole reason for having this type of shutdown for my Arcade Machine is that the grandkids can shut down the PC without using the mouse. Obviously other option would to use Bigbox. Cheers Andy

Thanks so much will try later today Cheers Andy

Thanks Joe That worked I can now shutdown Launchbox and my PC without right clicking the Shutdown Icon. But the problem I still have is when I reboot my PC and run Launchbox the Shutdown Games Icon is gone, nothing is saved. Launchbox also doesn't save any changes if I exit launchbox via the normal exit menu. Cheers Andy

Firstly Thankyou for replying. The third screen shot by right clicking and selecting Additional App the shutdown batch file works and closes launchbox. When I reopen launchbox the Shutdown icon, program and all has not been saved. Any clues would be great Cheers Andy

Hi I'm new to the forum hope I'm in the right place I have created a shutdown bat file in the manually added games area. I right click on the so called game called Shutdown which has a administrator privileged shortcut to the actual shutdown bat file and it works fine. The Shutdown game displays it's unavailable on the right hand side of launchbox but it works fine if you right click the icon. The problem is exiting from launch the game Shutdown which is the bat file doesnt save on return Please any advice would be great Cheers Andy
