Launchbox/ Bigbox won't load After 13.11 Update

[ktwitch21]

Launchbox was running fine. I was playing it yesterday. Then I closed it. When I reopened it, it updated to the newest version 13.11 Now the Application won't start anymore. I get a message that Launchbox encountered an unexpected error. 

 

(Inner Exception)

I have no clue what any of this means. Any help with instructions on how to fix would be much appreciated.

What version Windows are you running?

If running Win 7 or 8 then that is the issue. Win 7 and 8 are no longer supported in LB. Version 13.9 is the last version you would be able to use. If you do not have the 13.9 installer in your \Updates folder you can email below and ask for a copy.

My Emulation PC is still on Windows 7 sadly. The last setup I have is 13.5. Guess I'll email them for 13.9. Do I have to do a fresh install or will going to 13.9 just overwrite the 13.11?

You can just run the installer and it will overwrite 13.11.

Thanks for the Help. I sent them a request for 13.9.

After 'updating' to 13.9, be sure to go into Tools, Options, Updates and uncheck the Check/Download/Update options.
