Launcbox Big Box fails to start

[Thering1975]

This is the 2nd time in a year i have faced an issue which makes no sense. 

Updated about a month ago and all was fine, opened bigbox several times no issue. Howeverit's been a few weeks and i fancied some gaming.

Opened both bigbox and launchbox and it errors out on every file in the data folder (xml), some are not present in the backup folder like input bindings.

I presume the only option is to delete the whole setup and start again?

 

No msi afterburner present here

Sorted it by replacing each platform XML file, them had to rescan roms to remove the ones now pointing to the incorrect location  and then rescan the roms again.

Just not sure why it decides one day to error out after it works fine for a  while

@Thering1975 Are you using any file syncing services like Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive?

Hi

Nope this is a dedicated retro / gaming machine nothing installed bar LB Kodi and steam and of course  graphics drivers etc.

All other programs and default windows junk inc onedrive is removed.

There's really only a few other things that could cause stuff like that, crashes/power failures/reboots, faulty hardware, or a corrupted file system. You might want to run chkdsk first to see if you have any file system issues.
