Additional apps issue

[LuismaSP89]

This problem is from far away, but launchbox team doesn´t solved the problem yet (I don´t know if they know about it)

Basically, if you use the additional app section, you can launch a program, a batch file, etc, before the game opens.

The problem here, is that, even if you use the  "Wait for exit" option, the rom is launched after 15-20 seconds, it doesn´t wait for the user to close it. This is really annoying, because, for example, i launch .txt files with some instructions to read. And the rom doesn´t wait to close the window.

you are right. that is annoying.

i tried it like below also since notepad.exe is a real application. eventually, the emulator runs before you close the notepad file and exiting notepad.exe

application path:  C:\Windows\notepad.exe

application command line parameters:  C:\Temp\test.txt

Edit: I hope @Jason Carr will fix this or shed some light with a workaround. it seems to take more than 15 seconds for me to see the emulator launch.
