CadetStimpy Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I recently rebuilt my PC, and while installing LaunchBox v12.6 (which was working fine before the rebuild), I get this error during Installation: It's not in the Backups Folder: I downloaded the Setup file a couple more times, in case the download was corrupt, but same result every time. I run the Setup as Administrator. Any ideas to resolve this? Thanks. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Never need to run any of our products as administrator to make them work and in fact typically it causes issues. If you look at your second image the Windows.xml file would be located in the Platforms folder, could you look in there and see if it is, and if so can copy it over to your LaunchBox\Data\Platforms directory to see if it resolves your issue.

CadetStimpy Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 Thanks, C-Beats! NOT right-clicking and running as Administrator worked. I didn't even need to monkey with that XML file. That's baffling me, as I've always done it that way, with success. Plus, my account on this PC is an Administrator Account, so I thought anything I ran was being run as Administrator, anyway. But, I can't deny the successful results! 👍 U B da Man - the Kool-Aid Man! 🙂 Thanks again, C-Beats! Mike (aka Cadet Stimpy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Yeah, running as administrator makes Windows lie to us about where you're running the application from some times and can screw with our ability to tell where files should be.
