LaunchBox launching error

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

App: LaunchBox
Version: 13.17

Type: System.NullReferenceException

Windows 10
Unfortunately for me, I uninstalled and reinstalled the software (taking care to empty all the folders).
So, once this bug is fixed, I'm good to set everything up again.

Please, do we have to wait for a fix or is there a workaround for this bug?

Work around would be to turn off auto-import for GOG via Tools > Manage > Storefronts. If you can't get to it then with LaunchBox closed go to \\LaunchBox\Data\Settings.xml and change the value in the <GogAutoImport> brackets to "Off" (without quotes). Save the file and reopen LaunchBox

Odd there is not Settings.xaml in your \Data folder. Can you open that folder and post a pic of the contents?

Also, did you try to turn of the option directly in LB settings as mentioned by Cbeats post? Just asking as you made no mention of trying that. 

There is a new stable release of LB 1 (version 13.18) try updating. There were some GOG fixes, but not sure if they would address your issue. It is worth testing though.

Hello,
Thanks for the answer.


"

I said it, once the bug appeared, I uninstalled everything, to reinstall again. Attached, two screenshots.

"

I can no longer launch the application, so I can't access the software settings.

"

So I just uninstalled 13.17, to reinstall 13.18, and here is the bug has completely changed:
