Update problem to fix

[tom75000]

Hi, 

 

I got a problem with big box. He ask me to download the last update. I clicked No.

When I ran big box again he started to download the last version. So I just exit the program and now impossible to run big box. 

I have to install it again to run it. 

 

Do you know why? 

It is possible to change a config file to turn off the installation of the version and don't prompt for update? 

 

 

Ps : i' the settings I had turn off for the version but that don't work.

 

Thank you for your response

It sounds like you un-checked Check for Updates and/or Update to Beta Releases after you clicked No on the "Do you want to install the update now? popup.

When it's set to check for updates and there is an update, and you then click No (don't install), LaunchBox creates a temporary file in the /Updates/ folder called "UpdateStatus" (no file extension).  This tells LaunchBox/BigBox to [automatically] install the update next time it starts.

When you do got to install it again, 1st delete the file ../LaunchBox/Updates/UpdateStatus,  if it exists.  Run the installer and then when LaunchBox starts, go to Tools, Options and make sure the Update boxes are un-checked, and click OK.

(Just to be sure....) now exit LaunchBox normally and look in the /Updates/ folder.  If there's a file called "UpdateStatus", delete it.

You should be good-to-go.
