Okay that didnt work however when shutting down I got an nvidia error which was preventing shutdown which I seen a few times since recent nvidia update. NvFBCPlugin window was preventing windows from shutting down so on reboot I went into geforce experience and turned off in game overlay and HEY PRESTO! I booted up BigBox 5 times with zero slow downs. Launchbox worked fine too and shutting down correctly now. I hope this isn't just a stroke of luck here @tjwoosta can you confirm if this works for you? Seems Big Box does not like overlays.

I only have around 100 games however

Nope Also would point out all my roms are uncompressed if thats where you were going?

Just tried now after a long ten minute wait. Bigbox runs smooth as butter once actually running and the manuals load fine too (had to add a few first though lol). Its just that 10 minutes waiting time. Hit switch back to desktop mode and so far have waited 1 minute for launchbox to reload and still waiting.. I will add also when closing launchbox its not ending in task manager forcing me to manually remove the task before i can reload also.

Thats officially off now and still happening..

no antivirus installed, well actually no there was none until an hour ago. I installed one to check for viruses as honestly ripping my hair out with this issue. I bought this software for an arcade and cant really keep restarting my machine all the time because of that.

Exactly same for me and if I quit before it fully launches launchbox then does the same and takes about 2 minutes to boot. Have to force PC reboot to get launchbox working fine again. It will work perfect as many time as I boot it until I boot BigBox..

Its taking 10 minutes as I believe like me there is zero cpu usage @tjwoosta check your cpu usage for bigbox next time you boot it.

Exactly what I been saying it is loading but extremly slow. Task manager shows little to no CPU usage,

Yes I confirmed it was not running. I'll also link to this post which seems it was an issue back in the BETA too. Once Bigbox has ran once launchbox takes a long time to initialize. I believe Bigbox is doing the same thing which is possible making it seem like its crashed/frozen. All windows and hardware drivers are upto date. Task manager shows launchbox or bigbox only using a tiny bit of RAM and no CPU after attempting to launch after bigbox was closed like something else is still running or there is a leak.

Yep seems fixing .net did not fix it and other .net apps like mediacentremaster are not affected. Its only BigBox with this issue. Definitely seems to be a bigbox issue with 8.0

I do believe this is a .NET framework issue however running windows 10 which comes with the framework installed means I cannot re-install them. Its also preventing me from even booting epsxe entirely. Having to use retroarch for ps1 games. My computer thoguh is no slouch being a 4400k and a 980ti with 16gb DDR4.

When I look at it, its using 0% cpu to fix this issue I have to restart my computer then all apps work fine I can use my computer and all apps perfectly fine all day. I run bigbox and finish using then all apps boot with low cpu usage it kills cpu usage..

Switched it to my other drive when i reinstalled it. I have 4 (1 SSD 3 HDD)

tried with default theme but just installed bigcouch now after i assumed all was working fine

Yep its also causing retroarch to take about 1 minute and a half to load once i used bigbox . My pc runs perfectly fine but once i ran bigbox thats it all other apps have issues running, its not like CPU and memory being used either mem at 37% with all running and CPU 7%

Having nothing but issues so far and its frustrating, Only 100 games over 3 platforms while I master it all, I bought premium too this week as I do love it and wanna support you guys. Hope I get it figured out.

nope, the bug of launching launchbox after closing bigbox taking absolutely ages is still there and i only have 100 games (like 2 minutes)

Similar to my issue really already reported a new install works but thats no help and if i try to run launchbox after bigbox has crashed like this launchbox then takes very long to load up

Hello, Yes fresh install in a new folder with a few roms works fine. Which is why I am thinking a file is possibly corrupted somewhere.

LaunchBar is working perfectly fine and I can run roms perfect from within launchbox. No error messages it just sits there at the bigbox logo..

Everything was workign fine. I have made no changes to my system lately. It was working and now its not I removed the settings file from the data folder for bigbox to see if that would help and it has not. I even removed the custom video intro as it used to lock up after the video had finished. Worst thing is though it wont close proper either even after a good old task manager close forcing other apps to work erratically. For example retroarch which is on my SSD was taking like 20 seconds to startup instead of instant which it normally is. Tried to re-install launchbox over the old folders in case of corrupt files but to no avail. Is there any way to re-install just big box? Side note I might add it starts using my CPU when it starts then cpu usage goes to 0% and its basically doing nothing..

Awesome that they are being looked into though.

Ah was looking here.. I just noticed the noticed for not working in android. Any future plans for android support?

Well I am setting up all my emus on windows and so far so good but is there a painless way to transfer launchbox library with bigbox to android to boot via KODI? Or will I have to rebuild my entire library?
