Spidey077 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Hi, I seem to have accidentally created an “All” platform category, and cannot seem to get rid of the duplicate. Right clicking on either one just gives “grayed-out” options. Cannot delete or change either one. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have tried using backup xml files but do not think I fully know how to use it properly since I do not haves LaunchBox.xml file in the root folder. I am running latest version of LaunchBox. Any advice would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 So I'm still not exactly sure how that happens, @Spidey077. If you would be willing to zip up and PM me your LaunchBox\Data folder, I can look into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey077 Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 Yea no problem. Out right now (on mobile) but, will definitely get the folder to you. To answer your question of how, I was trying to create a platform category named favorites to be able to see it in BigBox alongside Arcade, Computer, Console and Handhelds but, was not appearing. So I edit the playlist to be included in a platform category under All but, I had to manually type it in since the option was not there. This did not yield the result I was looking for, so I deleted the playlist but All was duplicated and is now stuck. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Thanks Spidey; I've fixed this for the 8.7 official release, which should be out shortly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then go to the Parents tab and unselect the Root node. That should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not work, when I take the box selection from the options an error message appears saying that I should choose at least one option, and if I delete the platform, or the category, it deletes all my games from both options.
