[BigBox Start up issue]

Go to the updates folder in LB go to the latest update and run it again it will install directly over you other installation and will only replace the exe files and won't touch any of your folders with your work if you want to be really safe just create a copy of your Data folder as that is where all the files containing your stuff is located (plus you should have a copy of this folder located on a separate drive then the one with LB on it anyway in case your drive fails then you can easily restore your build if needed)

Thank you. This worked a treat!

Thanks for help.  was able to get it back up and working

Would you mind sharing exactly how you solved the issue? I can't start either Launchbox or Bigbox since a couple of days ago. Have put so much time into setting it up I'm a bit nervous about doing anything which might mean I lose all of that work.

Superb! Thank you. Unfortunately my 4TB drive with all of my retro setup decided to die last night, so my most up to date Launchbox setup is gone. On the bright side, it gives me a good excuse to implement this no-nag version of MAME in the new setup I'll be working on tomorrow when my new drive turns up. Thanks again, Neil.

Looking forward to seeing this feature implemented. The loading of emulators like Supermodel, Demul and Dolphin detract from the otherwise highly aesthetically pleasing nature of Big Box. Is there any chance that the Mame info screen(s) which pop-up before games load could also be auto skipped either along with the addition of this feature or independent from it?

@ThatGamingChap, if you start SumatraPDF manually, then hit F11 to go full screen, it will remember that setting between sessions.

Great! Thanks for the tip!

I have magazines as their own platform, same with books, comics, and multimedia. You could also make a platform for each publication and then group them into a magazine category. I use SumatraPDF as the emulator.

Nice! Any idea if it's possible to set up SumatraPDF so it opens full screen on start-up without the menu bar etc?

I'm also interested in this. I was hoping to import pdf magazine scans and point them to the Launchbox reader which opens the manuals, but I can't find the application.

[DEMUL No fullscreen]

Unsure if this will work for you but for me in Windows 10 Demul launches somewhat fullscreen but with the menu at the top still this is very annoying to stop it I went to the Demul folder and right clicked on the .exe file then went to properties from there you go to the compatibility tab and check the box for Turn off fullscreen optimization then the program launches in true full screen for me.

Thanks a lot! This worked for me; no menu bar in fullscreen!
