mp3deej Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 I want to thank you for the constant updates, but this time it totally messed up my current installation. I started Launchbox this morning, a couple minutes into it, it asked to update. I said yes, then it started, ran into a problem that said it couldn't continue, asked to try again, ignore or quit installation. Tried several times to continue, failed, ignore, failed then the only thing I could do was quit. I even opened task manager to see what could be stopping the installation, the only thing that showed up was the install itself. So now I try to start, launchbx, all it does is ask to download net core. Went into the update folder to manually install the app, blah, it is not even seeing the correct directory. The last time it did this and I pointed i the correct directory, and when I started launchbox, none of the games showed up, it was blank and asked to import. I had to do it all over again. E:\Users\sound\LaunchBox OS Name Microsoft Windows 11 Pro Version 10.0.22000 Build 22000 Other OS Description Not Available OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation System Name AUDIOTECH10 System Manufacturer To Be Filled By O.E.M. System Model To Be Filled By O.E.M. System Type x64-based PC System SKU To Be Filled By O.E.M. Processor AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor, 3400 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s) BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc.

Do you have a LaunchBox folder inside your LaunchBox folder? i.e. E:\Users\sound\LaunchBox\LaunchBox\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your Launchbox folder is say D:/Launchbox, then when running the installer you install to D:, as @JoeViking245 said installing it to D:/Launchbox will create a Launchbox folder inside your Launchbox folder, and that will auto open and be empty as its a new install at that point.

mp3deej Posted December 11, 2021 Author Share Posted December 11, 2021 That's not what happened the last time Launchbox install failed. It wasn't a user error either. I was able to correct the issue after a little work, but I did not install the program into the incorrect folder. This is where it installed. E:\Users\sound\LaunchBox last time and this time. I was able to install 12.5 again without a hitch this time after a re-boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
