Default file type

Recommended Posts

This is nothing major, just a small niggly thing that might avoid confusion for novice users and make things a little faster/easier for the rest. It might be better when importing a ROM for the default file type to be "All Files" as opposed to "Application Files". Currently, every time I look for a ROM I have to change the file type to "All Files" manually. I know it seems like nitpicking, but it is surprisingly frustrating, especially when doing many games back to back. Just cuts out an extra step.

Hey Jason, this issue still exists. Any chance we could have it default to all files? :) Also, while we're talking about cutting out extra steps, LaunchBox should remember the last folder I selected/browsed to. (This one's huge in my book!) I believe behind the scenes Microsoft calls this MRU (most recently used), and every application does it -- from Notepad, to Word, to Firefox, to Photoshop. If I'm adding images, or manuals, or ROMs, or whatever, have LaunchBox start in the last folder I selected. Or better yet, have several MRUs, one for each asset type. One for ROMs/EXEs, one for game images, one for manuals, one for music, etc. As it stands right now, every time to go to add a file somewhere, it always starts me in "My Documents\LaunchBox\Games" and I have to change the folder every time.
