DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 You don't have LaunchBox installed on your C: drive in the Program Files(86x) or Program Files folders by any chance do you? Quote
ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 not in program files its it its own directory on c drive Quote
ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 i have a directory called launchbox Quote
DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Okay then that isn't the issue then. I don't recall specifically but I believe there are permission issues if it is installed in either of the Program Files folders. You will have to wait for Jason to help you I don't know what can be causing your issue. Quote
ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 should i try to install in program files Quote
SentaiBrad Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 No it is best for permissions reasons to not have LaunchBox installed in your Program Files. Preferably a second hard drive, but it's not required. A potential problem is either your firewall or antivirus is blocking LaunchBox from being able to make outbound connections. Quote
DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Yeah like Brad said it causes permission issues I was hoping maybe you had it installed there and moving it would fix everything for you but definitely don't install it there. Also like Brad said Firewall and Antivirus would be your next best place to look. Quote
SentaiBrad Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 We have had known issues with Kaspersky in the past. Does it work now? Quote
ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 do i need to be a paying member Quote
DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Of what LaunchBox no the built in database is for all users regardless of what version of the program they have. Quote
ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 thanks i have a idea of how to fix this i would like to be a paying member but if it dont work no reason to pay for it Quote
ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 firewall and antivirus is turned off did a fresh install and still does not work Quote
DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Have you tried right clicking the LaunchBox.exe and running it as an administrator Quote
ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 dont work i dont know how to fix it Quote
Jason Carr Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Oddly it seems like the computer can't connect at all to http://images.launchbox-app.com. Unfortunately that error message gives us no reason why either. It still seems like it's most likely a firewall or blocking issue, but I can't confirm 100%. We haven't received reports of this issue from anyone else, so unfortunately I have to assume it's an issue with the machine itself. Perhaps there's another firewall you might have missed? Quote
