For some 12 hours i must have some kind of glitch

All of sudden it now seems to work

All games are imported with pictures

 

 

[Zeaede]

No, the issue is back

If i try import a system, the import says how many games

There i see all games in gray boxes

If i go to another system and back to the system that was imported, it says no results

So you can import the games into LB, but it is when you switch between platforms thing go missing?

Are you using any 3rd party software to scrape the media? Like skraper?

Im only using LB RL

When it didn't worked yeastarday i took a break, then tried today and it work, for later today not to work

Can be some issues to the LB database?

This is how it looks when im trying to import system, every game are in grey boxes with no picture

 If i go to another system and then back to the last imported system it looks like this

 

This is also happening if i try with new fresh clear installation of LB

But i guess tomorrow it's gonna work again import system with pictures

Make sure you don't have "Hide Games Missing Box Front Image" selected in the view menu. Also make sure you don't have back up files in your \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms\ folder

Thanks for tip

Didn't found "Hide Games Missing Box Front Image" anywhere bt when i removed NES from \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms\ folder i got it working

What i find strange this was the first time i get this problem

Thanks again

I've seen it happen because people restore a backup wrong or because a third party application people use for scraping images corrupts the folder and the data in it.

And sometimes when trying install a system i get the message

0 games were imported successfully

With the file removed from data\platform

What is causing that blocking?

Try and put your games in the games folder in Launchbox and try importing them again.

Whenever you get the “0 imported” message this typically means LB sees the game have been imported already. Can you share an image of what the inside of your \Data\Platforms folder looks like?

Also if you rerun the import and select the option for force import duplicates what happens?

When that is happening, the imported system can't be found on the list and not in the data\plattform folder

Can do next time when it's happening

Can you share an image like I asked? I want to see the contents of the folder as it is right now.
