It doesnt come back as you have force quit Bigbox so the process to bring back the cursor hasnt been run, as well as a bunch of other processes that need to be run at shutdow, but havent been if you force close it.

Well thats not true, easier and more optimized, maybe, but nothing can make the connection to your house any faster than it currently is.

You can also edit the existing entry's instead of adding a new one.

Yeah, well that is obviously more complicated, but that lack of info is why i asked. I have a few of them imported, i just added the shortcuts.

If that is empty then my guess is you have rather aggressive antivirus and its removing the setup file before it finishes downloading, so i would look at making a exception for the Launchbox folder. You can grab the 11.8 installer from the website like you did originally, just install over the top of your current build. Its exactly the same file, just that it needs to be manually triggered rather than Launchbox auto installing it.

Trouble how? People would need more details than that if you expect them to help you. If you mean the Amazon Prime app, then they are no different to any other PC system, just import the shortcuts it creates when you install games.

Yes, a GPU absolutely helps.

Just right click the platform in the sidebar and delete it. Then import again with correct files.

They should already be as they should be, unless he specifically changed stuff, messing with permissions can be very dangerous if you dont know what you are doing.

That is likely the problem, Launchbox has never been tested to use Retroarch in that way where its being launched via another launcher. Try using the standard Retroarch, im pretty sure you will have no such errors there.

No, that would be pretty pointless in Launchbox to be honest. Either the logos would be so small that you could barely read them, or they would have to be made bigger, then you would also need to make that sidebar much wider, and you would only fit a handful of logos on the screen at once, meaning you would be constantly scrolling for things which isnt really a great desktop UI experience. At the end of the day we have Bigbox mode for that, and it is specifically designed for that purpose.

Wow, really??? The dev doesnt have to put the product on sale at all you know? What makes you so special and entitled that it MUST go on sale, and that it MUST go on sale the day you want it to go on sale? We had a sale on the busiest sale day in the world, if you didnt bother to check if we were running a sale like every other store/website in the world, then thats 100% on you. If you want the software that much then whats the difference of $10 for a yearly sub to you?

Globally in Tools/Options, or per emulator under Tools/Manage emulators.

You know what they say about assumptions? We only do one sale a year, and its never been on Cyber Monday. Licenses are of course still available, and its worth its normal price.

Improvement: With the new startup screen features (assuming they are enabled) it should now be nearly impossible to start multiple instances of a game or mess up window focus by spamming buttons or keys during game launch Added in version 9.2 back on December 20 2018.

I see you have no images for Arcade there in Launchbox. In Bigbox do you have the option to hide games with no media turned on? Because if the option is on for whatever image type is selected there in Launchbox then all those games will be hidden, and therefore the platorm.

They dont work for MAME, period. A lot of consoles have them and FBA has some support, but MAME does not.

As I said, the core doesn't support them either.

MAME doesn't support achievements period. Any emulator has be specifically coded to support them. Retroarch supports them globally, but again its up to Individual cores on whether they actually support them or not.

Well im in the UK as well and Escape works out of the box, as it should. So whatever is interfering seems to be isolated to your PC, especially if its the same on different keyboards.

Sounds like, you changed the buttons at some point, back is Escape by default out out the box. Go to the Launchbox/Data folder and move out the Bigboxsettings.xml and start Bigbox after, that will reset Bigbox to default settings, does Escape now work?

Yeah those have to match, otherwise Launchbox doesnt no what emulator to use. If you named the platform PC Engine, but there is no PC Engine entry in Associated platforms then Launchbox doesnt no how to launch the games for that platform.

I wouldnt expect a reply on any weekend, let alone one which is also a public holiday. Early next week would be my guess.
