Thank you for clarifying.

I am wondering why when I started to import roms and I cancelled the import, it still imported the games automatically but with no input from me. This means I didnt get a chance to select an emulator, among other things. Is this intended? I dont understand how this could work. Does this require setting up platforms and emulators before the import? But that doesnt make sense either because it tries to import new games automatically right away before theres a chance to set things up. Im very confused on how this is supposed to work.

Thanks for the reply, I do keep my games in the Lauchbox\Games folder, and chose to keep them there during import. Is there any way to know how Launchbox wants me to name them beforehand? Right now the [platform].xml file, platform management in Launchbox, and the game edit dialog all have different paths. Which is the one I should go by? Thanks again. (I did already mass edit the [platform].xml files using Notepad++, while Launchbox was closed.

Is it a folder naming problem? Do the game folders need to be named a certain way?

Hi, I am resetting up my Launchbox for about the 100th time now (Was very close to selling gaming PC, but decided not to.) But now I am having a problem that I have had before, but somehow messed around with it until I got it. This time however, I would like to know why this is happening. When I import a ROM folder into Launchbox, I choose to leave the files where they are. But afterwards I find that it has created a duplicate folder, although it is named slightly differently. For example, I had my folder of Gameboy games named "Nintendo - Gameboy" in my Games folder. After the import, there was a new folder named "Nintendo Gameboy" (no dash), which was empty, and the original folder "Nintendo - Gameboy" which still had the games in it. Why does this happen? I really dont want any more folders in there than I have to, especially if they are empty. Thank you.

Add me to the list.

Ok, i understand. Thank you.

Hi, i was wondering if there would be/ could be an api importer for uplay and origin. There are several games in both those companies that i have but don't want to install every one of them, nor do i have space for all of them, but i would like to show them in launchbox.

Ran installer on laptop and works now, thanks again.

Ok, yeah, that works. Thank you for your help. As always, I'm loving this program!

Ok, I'll try it. But when I update on one computer, should I also rerun the updated setup on the other computer? Because it was working on both before the update.

Ok, thank you for trying.

Its actually installed to root of DropBox, and shared between the 2 computers.

Just trying to get info here, but there seems to be quite a few posts about this where Launchbox is concerned, could it be accidentally modifying something, for instance, while updating? Why else would there be so many reports of this when starting Launchbox...OK, not a huge number, but there are some.
