ckp Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 you can import your shortcuts. should work fine. if you have a lot of Steam games, you could try the import steam games option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 You can import shortcuts or .exes. Just use the "none of the above" option in the import wizard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 The best method is to create a folder and make shortcuts to your PC games and put them in the folder. This becomes you r"roms" folder which you just simply import into Launchbox and the first popup box when importing you will see 3 options, pick the "none of the above" and then pick Windows as the platform.

I put my shortcuts into C:\PC GAMES then i go to import(4 options: games MS-DOS, Files Roms, Steam and windows). I choose files Roms, and un the first windows i choose mayor directory C:\PC Games. After i choose platform windows. And the next step they say me than i need choose a emulator, with three options(only add options posible). And when i choose this options, show me name of emulator and a lot of differents options, but always for emulators, i don't see any option to don't put emulator and go the next step. I need help please! Thank you so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Just drag the folder with the shortcuts directly into LB, then it'll show the import wizard. Choose the bottom option that says "none of the above". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar than steam or windows import, but for the games that launchbox don't detect than they are installed on windows. I'm waiting any solution and thank you so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 If it's not letting you drag them in, it means you're running LB as administrator. Do not do this. Dragging them in will work when you run it normally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikemachu Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 Ohhhhh i'm happy, you are on truth! This was my problem! I opened LB within administrator privilegies and i could add my directory with drag into LB screen. Now when i search information, i don't found vídeo.Could you say if someone know a form to import steam vídeos to pcgames directory automatic?
