Same problem, still no help in sight. I've tried to report this issue before, but not one solution has worked yet: I've added a bunch of japanese indie games one day, and all but two has simply disappeared when I reopened launchbox later. Now, I wanted to maybe retrace what part of the metadata has caused this error, so I decided to go step by step, and just add one of the games as just a name, and no other metadata, and slowly filling out the lines and pages one by one, quitting ad realoading the program in between... But when I created the launcher for the program that supposed to have nothing but the title, it also had all the images I used before, when I added the game first. And when I reopen launchbox, It was gone again. Anyone knows what's going on here? Can I remove a game permanently with all its metadata and images? Is it possible to fix this issue? So far, I've been told: Disappearing games almost always is one of two things. 1) You have files in your data folder that don't belong. Look in \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms and ensure there is one file per platform in there and no backup files being kept there. 2) You have an auto-hide feature enabled. Go to the View > Show/Hide menu to verify. I honestly don't know if either of those are the issue, or if sou how to even look for them. I'm attaching some screenshots, one is my Platforms folder, the other two are my Show/hide menus. I think both look ok. Please let me know if you spot something, or if there's something else I should try.

Thanks for the answer, I'm not sure if either of those are the issue. I'm attaching two screenshots, one is my Platforms folder, the other two are my Show/hide menus. I think both look ok. Please let me know if you spot something, or if there's something else I should try.

Hello all, I'm trying to set up multiple controllers for a single game in dosbox (I was going to set-up some fighting games). I thought I'd just use the keymapper, but it didn't work. At times, it didn't recognize the second contoller at all, some of the buttons were missing or overlapping, etc. Worst of all, once I unplugged a controller, it usually didn't recognize it at all, once plugged back in and restarted the program with the saved key-settings. Is there an easier and surefire way to set them up?

I don 't see any duplicates

How do I check for the first issue? The second issue probably isn't there in this case, I have nothing within the "view/hide games" menu checked.

Hello, I was redirected here from the bug report page. Here's my issue: Sometimes, when I import some games, and reopen launchbox afterwards, those entries are just gone. A common aspect of them, is that they’re not automatically imported, instead I have to type in all the metadata. I was told to check \Launchbox\Data\Platforms folder for extra xml files in there that are backups or copies of the original platform xaml files, since this can cause the disappearing games issue. I didn't find any. Each platform has just one file there. I'm using Launchbox v.13.18

Oh yeah, and thank you Jason! Have a great holiday!

Launchbox is the best! Thanks a lot for this giveaway-thingy!
