macca64 Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Hi all This is something that seems pretty widespread but im gonna go ahead and ask in the hope that at least 1 person has found a workaround. I run a windows 10pro version 22H2 machine and after 4 days of trying i still cant get Launchbox to download and install retroarch. yes i know you can install it yourself but even when i do that Launchbox still wont find retroarch even tho ive chosen it and directed launchbox to its path. Ive allowed launchbox and retroarch both through windows firewall and turned off all windows defender anti everything but still no luck. So...... i have a windows 7 32bit machine that i use to run my cnc router, i thought that would be the easy way of doing this..... install it and run it on a portable hard drive, lol it wont even install via that machine. Am i doing something wrong or is the most frustrating piece of software ive come across in 25+ years of computing. anyhow, looking forward to replies thnx in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimTheLad Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 TOOLS / OPTIONS / GENERAL/UPDATES then enable "Update to Beta Releases" CLOSE LAUNCHBOX... wait a bit OPEN LAUNCHBOX, this worked for me. hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendoman Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 (edited) RetroArch changed something which broke the download feature in LaunchBox. Install the LaunchBox Beta release for the fix until the next official version is released. Go to Tools > Options > General > Updates > Update to Beta Release [check box] [OK] Then... Menu > Help > Check for Updates Edited October 4, 2023 by Nintendoman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfuriosus77 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 This is still happening, any resolution for this behavior? On Windows 11, just gave this a go and the Downloading and Installing RetroArch has been stuck at about 30 % for hours. Help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Just download from the RA website and install RA manually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
