Ok I just found my issue and it is really weird. My pc was blocking all the dlls from the custom theme, even though I have turned off firewall and scanning in this drive. I guess it is a new windows feature. I had to right click on properties and select unblock and apply, I ended up running this command from cmd to unblock every dll in my Launchbox folder just to be safe Get-ChildItem "R:\LaunchBox" -Recurse -Filter *.dll | Unblock-File Anyways, thanks a lot for trying to help, posted the solution in case anybody else has the same issue, that was really weird!

Yeah I'm not sure that is the true issue of my problems anyways, it's just the only thing I have to check. I have a pretty huge library too so I didn't wanna delete and start from scratch but I think I'll probably have to do that after all, since nothing seems to work

This didn't help, this is really weird lol. It seems that when I open Big Box a file named videoActive is created inside the MetaData folder. If I delete it, Big Box will start right away, that's really weird. Edit: Also the startup video or the Big Box logo do not show when I open the app.

Update, I think something is wrong with my metadata or launchbox.metadata,db file. As soon as I delete that folder , big box loads but then throws an unhandled exception. That's really weird, never had any issues with launchbox-big box before

Hi, I'm suddenly having an issue where I can't open Big Box. Launchbox opens up just fine, I turned on logging and getting this message 2025-08-22 03:21:43 PM DataManager.SaveInternal started. 2025-08-22 03:21:43 PM Saving InputBindings.xml... 2025-08-22 03:21:43 PM Saving GameControllers.xml... 2025-08-22 03:21:43 PM Saving ListCache.xml... 2025-08-22 03:21:44 PM Saving Settings.xml... 2025-08-22 03:21:44 PM DataManager.SaveInternal completed successfully. 2025-08-22 03:21:47 PM FIRST CHANCE EXCEPTION: Cannot locate resource 'views/launchbox_theme_folder/fonts/redhatdisplay-black.ttf'. at MS.Internal.AppModel.ResourcePart.GetStreamCore(FileMode mode, FileAccess access) I checked my BigBoxSettings.xml inside Data folder and I'm seeing this This is my Retro Console Theme Anim V2 folder and the fonts folder inside I copied the RedHatDisplay-Black.ttf from the default theme folder to see if that was the issue but no dice. Any help would be appreciated, cheers!
