With all due respect, a Antivirus that deletes files that are not virus's is a poor product to start with and not worth the money. It's clearly not fit for purpose if it just deletes perfectly safe files with little or no warnings at all, actually in that regard Norton is acting like a virus itself by removing/editing files without notifying the user, thats really bad form and i wouldnt touch Norton with a 10 foot pole. The Windows defender that comes free with Windows is a perfectly fine product, and doesnt go around deleting files without telling you or scaring you with virus warnings for perfectly safe programs, also uses far far less resources that Norton does.

Yes, that is the issue, the games you are deleting are still being read from the other files. You should never have any extra files like that in that folder. Delete the Famicom one as well while you are at it

Old installers are in your Launchbox/Updates folder.

Do you have a backup of the file in the data/platforms folder that is interfering?

You can just drag and drop shortcuts/.exe files onto Launchbox. When the wizard opens just choose the "None of the above" option.

First i would check whether or not your antivirus has removed any files, specifically the bigbox.dll we have recently seen Norton removing that, and if so tell your antivirus to restore the files ( id also just exclude the whole Launchbox folder from antivirus scans to be honest). If that doesnt work then you can install Launchbox over the top of itself. Just go to Your Launchbox/Updates folder and run the newest installer and install to the same location, this will replace the Launchbox needed files but wont touch your data/images etc. However if it was indeed your antivirus removing files the same thing will just happen again, so that is where you should really look first.

Dont forget to refresh the cache in Bigbox, Options/Image Cache.

There are no settings, and you didnt need to install it. VLC is included with the Launchbox installation and is in the Launchbox/ThirdParty folder, this is what is being used, not the version that you installed to your system.

Or you know, just use Retroarch or mednafen like everybody else.

Try this, just put the two files in your game folder and run the .bat. chd_batfile-20200927T131941Z-001.zip

You need a old version of dolphin. https://dolphin-emu.org/download/list/Triforce/

If you do not have the CHD the game wont work. For games like that you need the rom file AND the CHD file, the CHD is a disk image that has most of the games data in it.

By map, you mean "Folder".

yes, but i didnt want to load up Retroarch, so i didnt.

Ever heard of google? Also you can look at the retroarch info for the core to see what file types it supports. supported_extensions = "dsk|sna|zip|tap|cdt|voc|m3u"

Sorry no idea, not a platform i have ever looked at or cared about.

No.

Working fine here.

Doubt it, Retroarch will just unzip the files in most cases that arent Arcade.

Unfortunately this means that you were using a pirated or shared license. You can fix this by buying a legitimate license and replacing the one in the Launchbox folder.

What cores are you testing and have you messed with any settings in retroarch?

11.6

You can now just right click games in the gamepass sidebar to create desktop shortcuts.

Usually crackling/bad sound in a emulator is because your PC isnt fast enough to run the emulation correctly. What are your specs?

You can type in any system name you like, it doesnt have to be in the list.
