Glad you are back up and running A fix from Launchbox? This may not be a Launchbox issue if Riva Tuner is causing the issue only after the Win10 update.

All images for Platform Categories (Console, Arcade, etc..), Platforms (Arcade, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, etc...), Playlists (Favorites, Namco Classics, etc...) will have their own folder structures to follow. If you have already imported games into LaunchBox then it will have already created general structures for what you imported. Just head into your \Launchbox\Images folder and spend some time in it. You will quickly see how the structure is laid out. Images for the Platforms (The platform name itself not the games for a platform) go in: \Launchbox\Images\Platform\[Platform Specific Name] then there will be sub folders like Banner, Clear Logo, Device, etc.. where you place each unique image.

Any chance you are running Riva Tuner? A few members reported this same issue. One was did revert back to the prior W10 version and the issue went away. A couple others found that Riva Tuner was now causing an issue after the W10 update so they added an exception for Launchbox in Riva and the issue stopped.

\Launchbox\Videos\Startup If the folder called Startup is not in your Videos folder just create it and add videos. You can add multiple and BigBox will select one at random each startup up. Files do not need to be named anything specific.

That's the thing though, for the other users Riva Tuner had not cause them issues with Launchbox until that Windows update. I would keep it in mind though if you ever update Windows again, if this issue appears again try adding an exclusion to Riva Tuner for Launchbox.

Are you using mame (the standard command line version) or one of the offshoots like MameUI or Arcade64?

@Viis83199 Glad you got it sorted and are back up and running. Interesting for you that uninstalling 1903 fixed it. I updated to 1903 a couple weeks ago with no issues. I have two other setups not in 1903 so I may update to see if anything triggers. There were a couple other threads of Launchbox not opening after a 1903 update but it turned out for those users it was Riva Tuner. So I wonder if something happened with the 1903 and Riva Tuner. Are you using Riva Tuner by chance?

Metadata is all the data that describes the games. Corrupt data in the xaml files has caused some odd Launchbox issues. I dont know what matadata is ?

Are either of you running Riva Tuner? If so try adding an exception for Launchbox/BigBox and see if that helps. There are quite a few posts of it causing issues.

I have merged the two threads since the original contained useful data. @uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhwyanwunt if you choose to try and troubleshoot with us please try some of the steps provided and respond with what did or did not work. We cannot help if you do not try what was recommended and provide clear response to what you tried and what did/did not happen.

Do either of you use a lock code in BigBox? If so is the setting to allow pc to sleep while BigBox is locked checked?

You do not need to run as admin. You have the exit script in the wrong tab. It needs to be in the Running AutoHot Key Tab. The Exit tab is used if you have issue closing a game from the Pause Menu screen. I would also recommend changing to a more appropriate closing script like. The Process, Close version is a hard close of a program. $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} }

Make sure in Launchbox>Tools>Options>Search>Emumovies you are signed in and test the connection. Also confirm your subscription to Emumovies is still active. Video option is still there if all the is correct and active.

The default checks should get you what you need. So if you do not mess with any of the pre-checked boxes you should get a clean import.

Right now that is not possible. Marquee support is very limited for now. Jason did advise he will eventually upgrade marquee support.

CTRL+Click and select only the games with missing media and then run the media manager. >Tools>Download Metadata and Media.

For the epr-18261.bin if you have a good mame romset you can pull that file out of Sega Touring Car Championship rom (stcc.zip). In that file it will be named epr-18261.ic9 and will work with that name. Just copy it from the stcc.zip and place it in your lemans24.zip

Each theme has xml files for each supported view (located in the Views folder ). You would need to edit the correct view xaml file for the view you are using. Keep in mind changing it means it will affect each system that uses that view. So systems that do not have an arcade cabinet background you will have the marquee covering the system logo that is at the top.

It would require coding to change the image location and would likely need to have the grid the image is shown in control the size since not all marquee image files are the same dimensions. You might want to check out Unified Refried. It have dynamic marquees that will change the marquee image on the cabinet much like what I think you are wanting to show.

Do the tabs for "Reset Game", "Save State", and "Pause State" tabs still have the default AHK scripts in them? Also in your first pic the Details tab you can uncheck the boxes for Using Quotes and Use File Name Only.

BigBox > Options > Controller

There was mention early on that if you had Launchbox installed on an external drive you needed to make sure you deleted the Launchbox folders located on your Sheild internal storage. It was mentioned back on page 7 and page 8. Posts by Jason and Krater9. Not sure if that would have any affect on your issue with Retroarch, but seemed worth a mention.

In each theme’s Launchbox folder the xaml files are located in the Views folder.

I have not used Kega Fusion in a long while but still had it set up. I had it with a command line -fullscreen in the Launchbox settings, removed that line and it is launching fine in windowed mode. Any chance you have that in your Launchbox settings for Kega Fusion?
