Launchbox unzips game files into game directory rather than temp directory


Recommended Posts

Good evening.
I am Launchbox's newest subscriber and really like the software. I previously used Hyperspin, but feel Launchbox is more promising.

Having used Hyperspin, all of my roms are zipped into .7z files. I understand that Launchbox can unzip them and it seems to be working fine, but it unzips the game into the same ROM directory the archive is located so I end up with both a .7z version and the unzipped game.

My understanding was Launchbox is able to unzip files to a temporary directory and upon exit, would automatically delete the temporary file. Is this not the case? And if this IS possible, how the heck do I do it?

I appreciate any insight on this as I'm stumped!

Yes it does work like you are wanting. It sounds like you are launching your games from LB using something special?

Maybe you can post screenshots of one of these games (right click game and go to edit it) including the first tab in the game properties and the Emulator tab.

Also include screenshots of the emulator you have set to run this game by going to Tools->Manage emulators and edit the emulator.
