That did it! I'll update to the beta then. Thanks so much!

All of my Windows games are Steam games, all were added via the import functionality who knows how long ago and I tested a couple back then to make sure they work. Other platforms seem fine. If I click on a Windows game to see its details, LB freezes, the Game Details pane doesn't populate, and windows tells me LB has stopped responding with no option to wait. If I right-click a Windows game, the contextual menu opens, but freezes, but the game details window does populate the game's information. This ends in the same result as before - Windows tells me LB has stopped responding. I've tested it for installed and uninstalled games, neither work. BigBox seems to work fine for Windows games, I can scroll through them and enter the submenu with the game details just fine. I'm running Windows 10. LB version is 7.14 and if it makes a difference I have a premium lifetime license. If there's any additional information that would be helpful, just let me know and I'll dig it up. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm guessing I must've made a typo in a way that was invalid to LB and it reverted to a backup, I'm not sure how I could've made the typo multiple times though as I'm usually very careful (don't want to fry a file and have to start all over in correcting ROM names or something).

Maybe I'm not phrasing it correctly. When I add a platform, I don't use the UI to change the 34 folder paths found in Edit Platform. I feel it simply takes far too long and is too prone to error since I have to do each one manually. What I do instead is import all the platforms I'm planning to do, let it pull in all the images and whatnot it wants, and when that's done I close LB. I go into the LB install folder and copy the Images, Music, Manuals, and Videos folders to my media folder on my larger storage drive and I used Notepad++ to do a find and replace in Platforms XML to change the XML from <FolderPath>Images\Saturn\Box - Front</FolderPath> to <FolderPath>E:\Launchbox Meta\Images\Saturn\Box - Front</FolderPath>, only I'm doing a Replace All going from ">Images\" to ">E:\Launchbox Meta\Images\". And I repeat for Videos, Music, and Manuals. This gets the platform setup and the files where I want them faster than manually editing 34 fields through the UI. I edit the Games path via the UI as my platform naming isn't consistent with Launchbox's and I've never bothered to change it. In the past, this process worked fine, I'd reopen LB and the images would all still work but if I edited a platform, I could see the folder paths had been updated to reflect my changes in the XML. This time, however, the changes were not reflected and it appears the XML was cached or restored from a backup. Although I kept changing the file back and closing/opening LB and now my changes are in so...not sure what was going on, but it seems fine now. Maybe Notepad++ was locking the file or I typo'd a path in the replace.

Because it's decidedly faster than editing through the UI where I have to browse 3 folders deep to a different drive or click a handful of times for each individual folder to cycle through selecting the textbox to be active, select all, select the first character, and paste.

I just got done adding a few new systems and doing my usual close launchbox, open platforms.xml, find and replace >Images\ with >[Launchbox Media folder location]\Images\ but when I launch Launchbox again, my images for the new systems are broken and when I manage the platform, it's still pointing to all the old values. Is there a cache I need to clear to get my changes to take? Also, is there a way to set master Images/Music/Manuals/etc folders instead of having to do this every time I add a platform?

Is there a way to export a list of games, specifically "where Custom Field: Interest == (None)"? All of the games that match that are in the Windows platform, if that helps. However, I looked into Audit and it didn't appear to output custom fields so it was of limited use. For the most part I just want to get titles and maybe release years in a list.
