Could not reinstall directX, even following this guide didn't work Apparently there is no offiical stand alone installer for Windows 10 directX
How can I force a full re-install of DirectX? A: Normally the DirectX installer will refuse to install if it detects that you already have the latest version of DirectX installed. This makes it a pain in the ass to fix a broken DirectX installation. Luckily, there is a small workaround to trick the DirectX installer into a full re-installation.
Run the Registry Editor: Start -> Run -> regedit
Navigate to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectX
Change the value of version from '4.09.00.0904' to '4.08.00.0904'.
Now run the DirectX installer.

Yup crashed again...this time while cycling through images on a Sega CD game (in the edit view for it)...trying directx-reinstlal now.

I've removed Visual Studio 2015 - STILL CRASHED.
I removed Visual C++ runtime libraries for 2015 - STILL CRASHED
I removed Visual C++ runtime libraries for all those under version 2015 down to 2010 (most were version 2013 I believe) - Has NOT CRASHED YET...)
YAY!
Next...will try reinstall of Direct-X if it crashes...-

I understand and appreciate you trying to help....come to think of it, there was something else installed around this time of the creator update and I'm surprised I forgot about it....I guess cause I haven't used it much yet..followed some basic tutorial videos with it...I installed Visual Studio 2015 ...works fine, so I suppose that could have messed this up...but I'm not sure how...
-
Microsoft sort of forces the damn update, and you have to jump through hoops to prevent it...I should have...

I'll try it and update this post, but if that fails to fix it, the issue is certainly to do "with us". (LB) as it was working perfectly fine before and I've installed no other software beyond the win 10 OS update.

If anyone else having this issue with Windows 10 Creators update or for any other reason, frequent crash matching the screenshot error I posted above, please VOTe for my issue here, thank you!

How can I back up my favorites, playlist and SERIES LIST? I want to reinstall - i don't want to lose and have to rebuild these all if I reinstall to try to fix my crashing issue.
Ever since updating my Windows 10 with this new creator patch or whatever, it's been doing this....UGH -

Oh god no, our Database is far from complete. We had our data from Games DB about a year ago now, and since then we've had almost 3 million submission changes from our community. It's growing, fast, but it's far, FAR from complete.
I haven't tried the new plug in to help make the process easier for submission to the Launchbox database , but assuming that it's working well, that should dramatically speed up the process I would think!
-
Thanks, I'll wait for 8.0 I guess...Don't want to lose my favorites! Any way to back those up??
-
I guess I'll reinstall the dependencies like framework first, my collection is almost 7TB...wouldn't a full reinstall take a long time?
-
Nothing changed hardware/OS wise EXCEPT now I'm in Windows 10 latest update that some people are reporting causes issues....is there a way to fix this? It happens MOST of the time I have Launchbox open now, probably anytime it exceeds from 1min-30min it will almost always crash at least once...and it can happen if I walk away from the computer, or if I'm clicking through my game categories/lists....
What do I need to provide to troubleshoot this more, and possibly get it fixed? Thanks everyone...bummed out, really want the stability back... -

Sorry, I expressed myself terribly. I meant the .xml-file inside Data/Platforms that has "the name you gave to the movie platform".xml. So, if you called the platform Movies, I'd like to see Movies.xml.
LOL I was wondering why, but I was like "what the hell do I know?" hahaha, I'll post it soon, thanks!

Sorry to hear this @cleverest. Could you send me the platform .xml from the data platforms folder? I must admit that it's been quite a while since I last looked into this, so I'm not sure if I'll try to resolve the issues, or try to create one of those fancy new plugins.
Thanks Brian, I've attached it to this comment, let me know if you need anything else :-)

To confirm the auto consolidator works very well, but not perfectly, it missed a few variations, but overall it REALLY made things look neater :-)

After I run the process, and it fetches movie information from my collection....it says finish, I open launchbox and my collection under the platform is created, says I have 72 (I have counts enabled in the options), but no movies show up in the window.....then LB freezes, not responding...I re-opened, now the movies seem to load fine, but I'm in there for a few seconds, and LB crashes again, not responding :-(
just letting you know! -
Thanks, you got a great thing going here...any chance of adding other specific sites for the sake of scraping info?

Cowbell is always applicable and helps reduce insanity.

I ran this, seemed to run fine, but nothing changed in my launchbox...did I not run it in the correct location? Where should it reside? Thanks.

IS this all the software-list roms that mame supports (console emulation stuff) or actual games in the regular ROM (split) set I have? I just want the entire ARCADE set, minus mechanical, mahjong and non-working...I don't want the console stuff with mame..I already have that :-)

Launchbox needs more cowbell.
