LB10.11 lost most of the images

Looking into it, the naming convention for some/most of the directories has changed; for example "Images\Windows\Box - Front" has changed to "Images\Windows\Front" but images were not imported in the process.  Same goes with Back, Screenshots and probably some others. Why did this happen and is there some convenient way to fix this? Is this a bug on this release or is it just me? This is not exactly trivial to fix as I'm running 150 platforms so I will have to rename 150 directories per category \:D/

Folder names have not changed. I am running several machines with either latest LB version, latest beta, or another version and all image folders remain the same as they have been for quite some time.

Such a strange thing. Here's mine. Capture.thumb.PNG.886fc04e5e1840d6967bd96fa0a1c3c5.PNGI have no idea what happened. \data\Platforms.xml is apparently the culprit as it has entries like

Quote

<PlatformFolder>
    <MediaType>Box - Front</MediaType>
    <FolderPath>D:\Emulator\Software\LaunchBox\Images\Windows\Front</FolderPath>
    <Platform>Windows</Platform>
 </PlatformFolder>

So I guess I'll manually rename the folders back to what they used to be and hope the file doesn't get rewritten again by whatever did it the last time :/
