There isn't any auto-hide feature for it but you can use the quick filter or auto-playlist functionality to easily navigate to only installed titles.

Can someone tell me if it's possible to force Launchbox and BigBox to automatically show installed games in programs like Steam, GOG, etc., and hide them after uninstalling them, only to show them after installing them without creating a playlist (autopopulate playlist, or something like that?)
I've been struggling for several hours with ChatGPT, but I'm getting such ridiculous solutions that I'm speechless.
Why, despite loading the games on the list, it doesn't find all the games, I immediately say I don't have any filters etc., but more than 150 games are still missing and I can't see them

I don't quite understand what you mean by uninstalling and reinstalling the games 

But the platform.xml file should be responsible for the game list.

The 150 games you're missing could also be second and third versions like PAL, NTSC-U/C, etc.

which might be displayed in the same game depending on the settings.

What I mean is, for example:

It adds all the games I have on Steam, but Launchbox and BigBox only show games that are installed. The uninstalled ones are hidden and dimmed, instead of displaying a small icon indicating they're not installed.

They only appear on the list if I install a specific game. I hope you understand now
 

Regarding the visibility of the Steam directory, it's not possible that the games are PAL or NTSC, because these are Steam games.

I see there's no such option, so I'm left with the playlist option, which is sad ;(
Unfortunately, there's another problem: it adds the ID and API, but it only detects 404 games out of 545, I don't have family mode, I have everything public, etc. I can't get Launchbox to see all the games I have in my library 😕
