Thanks guys Ill check out BitDefender.

I thought Kaspersky was in some kind of trouble recently.

Couldn't agree more. I was actually looking into Avast.

I had before but had to do a fresh install of Norton when I was hacked. By a fake Norton popup. Man hate the internet sometimes.

Neil9000 Thanks that did the trick. Now back to work.

So Norton got a bug up its *** and removed my Launchbox.exe file. My bigbox.eXe still works. I tried to copy the launchbox.exe from my laptop but its not working. Any advise how to fix. I no longer have access to downloads. Thanks Update OK never mind I was able to download 7.11. I have hundreds of games already configured so I really dont want to overwrite anything in my old install. Can I simply use the EXE to repair it?

Changed it to the full path and unchecked "file name only without extension". Guess what... It works again.... Thanks guys.

Maybe this will help. These are screenshots of the exact setting right now. Again the only thing I changed from when it was working was trying to add the shader in RA just like in the Neo Geo Pocket tut on YT.

Well a total backup of files in LB failed. No change at all. Any ideal what to check next?

No luck that didnt work at all. Im trying to restore Launchbox from a backup I made a few days ago. Im not sure its going to work since the backup has been nightmare. I really hate Norton... Anyway I really appreciate the help but its after 3am here and Im going to call it a night and let the backup run. Fingers crossed.

Well its seems I was wrong about some of the platforms working. Now nothing under RA in LB works. I checked Command Line and its exactly like yours. None of the Associated Platforms have a -C in the command line. Since none of the retroarch platforms are working should I delete all the .cfg files under /config ?

Ok from RA I can load games. I tried Atari 2600 and even Neo Geo Pocket and they seem to work. I just cant get them to launch from Launchbox or Bigbox. But I also tried some others like WonderSwan, Fairchild, and Atari 7800 and those do work in LB. Systems like Nintendo, Atari 2600, Neo Geo Pocket, Atari Lynx all dont. As for the -c Command line it was exactly the same except on my system in the Config folder the file was "mednafen_ngp_libretro.dll.cfg" and not "mednafen_ngp_libretro.cfg" like in the video. So the total line I tried was [ -L "cores\mednafen_ngp_libretro.dll" -c "config\mednafen_ngp_libretro.dll.cfg" ]. After it bricked I tried going back to the just the original that worked [ -L "cores\mednafen_ngp_libretro.dll" ] but nothing its still dead. I cant figure out how to remove the shader from retroarch.

Not sure how to launch a game directly from RA but anything in LB or BB that uses RA is dead. If it uses another emulator outside retroarch its completely fine.

So I was following the Neo Geo Pocket Tut on youtube and added the shader exactly as instructed in the video. I went in and added the custom config parameters exactly like the video and when I went back to check the result Lauchbox and Big box are now both bricked for anything using retroarch. So. I tried removing the -c****.cfg and revert back to the pre shader settings and nothing Its completely bricked. Nothing works now. Any ideal how to fix it? Thanks.

Well I turned it off and walked away for about 30 minutes and when I came back and tried again it woks. Only thing now is that all the controls are backward. I guess thats just a matter of setting up each button. Is there a button map that shows what each should do? I found the xbox map but is there something like that for retroarch/launchbox to compare against?
