This usually happens when you kill Launchbox while it is writing to files, which it does when you close it. You should have backup zips in your Launchbox/Backups folder, i believe this is on by default, so unless you specifically turned that feature off (which would of been unwise) you should have backups. just unzip the newest one and look at the settings.xml, if it looks OK copy it to Launchbox/Data and overwrite, if that also looks bad try the next older one, and so on.

Did you let Launchbox download and install MAME? If you did it added some commands to the command line section in manage emulators, one of those is a art zoom option, remove that command.

I just got this error, looks the same as the one above. Object reference not set to an instance of an object. App: LaunchBox Version: 12.8 Type: System.NullReferenceException Site: System.Windows.Controls.ListView (System.Object) Source: LaunchBox at (Object ) at ParamObject.SearchSupportedProducer(Object , ParamObject ) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Desktop.ViewModels.BoxItemViewModel.SetImage(ImageSource source, Color backgroundColor, Boolean isMissing) at SchemaHelper.SearchSupportedProducer(Object , ImageSource source, Color backgroundColor, Boolean isMissing, SchemaHelper ) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Desktop.BoxImageCache.<>c__DisplayClass17_1.CountStatelessSingleton() at System.Windows.Threading.ExceptionWrapper.InternalRealCall(Delegate callback, Object args, Int32 numArgs) at System.Windows.Threading.ExceptionWrapper.TryCatchWhen(Object source, Delegate callback, Object args, Int32 numArgs, Delegate catchHandler) Recent Log: 17:34:25 Exception

You need a "Clear Logo" folder inside that "American Laser Games" folder.

Have you tried setting gzdoom as the emulator and the wads as roms?

Short answer, no. Longer answer, our database is English only, if you want your games in your Launchbox in Italian, you would need to translate everything on your machine yourself.

Never cancel a update/installation half way through on any software, you will break it as only half of the files will be installed, it's just a bad thing to do, period. Go to your Launchbox/Update folder and manually run the installer over the top of your current build.

I believe that is by design, and not a bug.

Those are not program errors or bugs, they are image issues with the images on the database, it just means those images are not available for download.

Specs and OS version might be helpful information.

Did everything work prior to the update? Do you get a error, or just a close to desktop?

Not true, most emulators actually dont put anything in your documents folder, and even some of the ones that do can be told not to quite easily.

I know it says its a exe, but it really isnt, just look at the file size difference between the actual exe in the core folder, and the fake exe/shortcut in the root folder. So it sounds like there is something wrong with the shortcut if the actual exe in the core folder works OK. Id try re-installing the latest version from your Launchbox/Updates folder directly over the top of your install to replace the Launchbox files.

You are not posting any images, just really long non-existent links, i cant help you if you dont help me.

That is not the actual exe, its just a shortcut to it. The actual exe is in the Launchbox/Core folder.

You do not need to post the same issue twice, also a image, or copy of the error would be helpful.

Check that your antivirus hasnt removed the exe.

MAME by default looks in its own mame/roms folder for roms, but you can place them anywhere, as long as you tell mame the location, either thorough the mame UI, or via the mame.ini in the mame folder. However if using the fullset importer and pointing the wizard to the correct location Launchbox should be doing this for you as of Launchbox version 12.7.

Go to your Launchbox/Data folder and delete the imagequeue.xml with Launchbox closed.

Its been renamed to controller mappings.

Go to the only official place, just google "pleasuredome github io"

Thats not a full mame romset, in fact im not sure what that is exactly. 2882 is about the number of working games in a fullset but a actual fullset is much larger than that, so i'm not really sure what you have there.

Right click it and go to edit, you can type anything into the search bar there to find a match.
