swimminginthoughts Posted December 5, 2018 Posted December 5, 2018 Is there an easy way to remove all roms not associated with a platform? I have a large amount of roms that I imported, then removed (or so I thought), but they still show up under ALL and don't have a platform associated. Quote
fromlostdays Posted December 5, 2018 Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) If you're just wanting to get rid of them, why not delete them completely? You should be able to use "List View", sort by platform, and bulk delete them all. Edited December 5, 2018 by fromlostdays Quote
swimminginthoughts Posted December 5, 2018 Author Posted December 5, 2018 Well, because there's a bunch and they show up under "all"! I was hoping there was a utility to remove them if not associated, or an XML that I can edit. Quote
fromlostdays Posted December 5, 2018 Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) In launchbox, select the "All" platform. Go to to the Menu/View, and select "List View". This should bring up a view that no longer shows box art, and will allow you to sort by "platform" at the top. Sort by platform. Scroll until you find the games with no associated platform, (theyll just be blank under platform in list view) shift highlight all of them, right click and select "Delete". Should be what you need. EDIT: Sorry, I said Menu/Tools. I meant Menu/View. Fixed in OP. This could probably be done in XML, but I'm not personally sure how. Edited December 5, 2018 by fromlostdays Quote
swimminginthoughts Posted December 5, 2018 Author Posted December 5, 2018 That worked perfectly. I wasn't aware that the list view was there! Quote
