Never had this happen after an update but I am no longer able to load Launchbox or BigBox after the most recent update today. Receiving the below error:

Hi there, 

Thanks for the report here, it appears there's an issue with your attached error message. If it's possible to re-submit the error that your seeing we'll try to look into this.

Can you also confirm if you're able to load LuanchBox at all, or if the error causes the app to quit completely? If you're able to open LaunchBox, go to Tools > Manager > Plugins and then under the ScummVM integration, click on the Repair option

Keep me posted know.

I'm experiencing the exact same issue, and Launchbox was working fine immediately preceding the update, now it won't load at all, just gets stuck on this error and needs to be forced closed in Task Manager. Please help!

@morbital can you please try the following:

- Close LaunchBox
- Go to your LaunchBox > Plugins directory
- Delete the ScummVM LaunchBox Integration folder

Reopen LaunchBox and let me know if the error still occurs

Thanks,

Same issue.
Fix was to remove both "ScummVMImport.dll" and the folder "ScummVM LaunchBox Integration" from the plugin folder

This fixed my issue, thanks!

Thnx for the fix. After that, I was curious if the ScummVM plugin needs to be repaired. It looked okay, but to be sure, I clicked on repair and now it's pending.

Closed the Plugin Manager window and:

After the restart of Launchbox, it looked the same. So probably it was okay in the first place, but because I removed the .dll and the folder, I wanted to be sure.

Edit: I've been playing around for a while now and I've had multiple crashes when adding a new game or adding new media.

Same issue for me. Deleted the file and the folder but I am still getting the error message and lunchbox won’t open 

I went back to 13.18 and wait for the 13.20 update.

My 13.19 was working after de deletion of the file and folder, but I had multiple random crashes without error message.

Can anyone tell me that if I try to download and install a new copy of Launchbox, will it delete all of my current settings and configs?  Not sure where to go from here .  I can’t get my Launchbox to open

I installed multiple times 13.19 and back to 13.18 and still have all my settings.
