tallpr24 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I have a working launchbox setup on my windows 10 pc. everything works great. is there a way to copy everything to a usb drive and have everything work off the usb drive? My son has a laptop in his room, and I would love if I he could just plug in a hard drive and have him up and running. He takes his laptop to his grandmothers house from time to time, and this would be so perfect if it could run off the drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bundangdon Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Absolutely. Here's a pretty good tutorial that shows how to do it also: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can but do not include your license file or it may end up black listed and no longer functioning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tallpr24 Posted December 22, 2021 Author Share Posted December 22, 2021 now i have another issue. i getting "ou've specified does not exist" for some reason non of my super nes roms will launch. The are all in the same location they have always been and rom names are untouched. Any Ideas on how to fix this? all other 26 something systems are not affected by this. I'm really hoping I don't have to re import all the rooms again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
