Update deleted core files

[edzz83]

So... ive not used my arcade machine in a while and wanted to play. It kept pestering me to update which I cancelled.

 

I went to open launchxox and it asked me again, I must have I accidentally said yes then cancelled right away and existed the wizard.. it has seemingly deleted my core folder but the rest of my files seem there.

 

Wtf? How do I restore now? Do I need to resinstall? Have I lost all my settings as it was alot of work?

Run the installer from the Launchbox/Updates folder and install directly over the top of your current build.

Thanks this worked. I did get an error however after the install it came up and said it was reported to dev team etc, A simple restarted and its all working again

THanks for your help, also noticed the backups folder, so im going to keep an extra backup of the entire launchbox folder on auto just to ensure i have a backup in future of all the media and settings incase of HDD failure etc.
