Trev0rDan5 Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Happy Friday all, Firstly, if this has already been discussed elsewhere, I am sorry. I couldn't find that it had been, so I will decribe the issue I am having. I have separate rom folders and console platforms for each of TG-16 and TG-CD. All my TG-16 roms appear in the NEC TurboGrafx-16 under the Console platform, as expected, and all of my TG-CD roms appear in the NEC TurboGrafx-CD, again, as expected. Rnadomly, however (and as far as I can tell, it is random), all my TG-16 roms get removed from the NEC TurboGrafx-16 platform and in their place, my TG-CD roms appear. My NEC TurboGrafx-16 pflatorm now containing my TG-CD roms, and my NEC TurboGrafx-CD also containing my TG-CD roms. The TG-16 roms are no where to be seen in my Launcbox library. I fix this by re-running the import ROMs wizard to bring back the TG-16 roms to the NEC TurboGrafx-16 plaftorm, which adds them back in and then renaming the folder containing my TG-CD roms and doing a scan for removed roms in TG-16. This fix is only tempoary though and soon enough, the TG-16 roms disappear only to be replaced by my TG-CD roms. Help please! Cheers!

C-Beats Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Typically when we see reports of items being "moved around" automatically the user has files in the \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms folder that don't belong. For example Skraper tends to put "-backup" files in there and it causes issues like what you're describing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev0rDan5 Posted April 7, 2023 Author Share Posted April 7, 2023 Yo, as I use Skraper for all my artwork and metadata, I reckon you have perfectly described my issue! I shall take a look and report back. Thank you for your speedy response! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
