WolfRamiO Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 its would nice if you can put an option to set BigBox Launcher as windows shell, and revert it back to the explorer.exe... i know it can be do it with regedit, but is a long patch Quote
Lordmonkus Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Why regedit when you can use this program I have directed people to in the past and it works really well. It's called bsetshell and get it here http://bb4win.sourceforge.net/bblean/ 1 Quote

aageon Posted October 6, 2016 Author Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) I will be updating this soon with another version that doesn't need the kill.exe anymore(kills explorer.exe) (some virus scanners see this as a virus...). This results in a program crash (lazy me ;)). So I'll be fixing this. Edited October 6, 2016 by aageon 1 Quote

Make sure to disable it or mark the file as safe if you can :). 1 Quote

DazStelfox79 Posted November 6, 2016 Posted November 6, 2016 Hi aageon Is there any progress on the Big Box Launcher as I use windows defender as my virus protection & for some reason even though I set all Big Box Launcher files as exemptions it keeps removing them. Quote

I am working on it yes. I'm fully rebuilding the code and adding extra's. The release of v1.1 will be close, it will also fix the false negatives. What's new in version 1.1: One main program for both Explorer and Arcade edition (selectable on first run) Your own artwork isn't bound on the resolution of the program, instead it will scale the program to your own artwork resolution No more false negatives and removal by your anti-virus Less crashes and several bug fixes Edited November 11, 2016 by aageon Quote
DazStelfox79 Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Looking forward to this so could you please let me know once it is available, much appreciated thanks. Quote
aageon Posted November 27, 2016 Author Posted November 27, 2016 Version 1.1 will be out before or just after christmas. 1 Quote
DazStelfox79 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Thanks for keeping up to date, looking forward to this. Quote
jonblaze21 Posted January 28, 2017 Posted January 28, 2017 Hey aagon Just seeing if Version 1.1 is out yet. Really looking forward to using this! Quote

Main program is written, writing the final bits on the installer (no more fiddeling around with files or version). You can choose if you want the explorer edition or the arcade edition at install, no more false virus alerts. 1 Quote
adu Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Is it possible with the arcade version to shutdown the computer (and the cabinet by extension) when we exit BigBox ? Quote
Mithrot Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 @adu To be fair, you can shutdown the PC via BigBox anyways. @aageon: Firefox is giving me malware warnings in your main post and I don't see the file up on the Third Party Programs section of the LaunchBox website. Perhaps consider replacing them with v1.1 when it does come out? Quote

pezley Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 Excellent work, was looking for something like this. Thank you Quote
Just-Johnnie Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 looks like just what i was looking for BUT virus warning Quote
