Problem with windows notifications on LB

[GIKAS1]

Hey everyone! Long time LB and BB user and fan! So I've been having this problem for the last couple of LB updates if a windows notification from LB is displayng on screen (e.g. when metadata finishes downloading) and a launchbox window is on screen (e.g. the window that appears when you drag and drop romfiles on LB) when the windows notification goes away due to some time passing, the aforementioned launchbox window dissapears and cant be reopened.

Then the launchbox main window becomes "unresponsive" (I guess because the window for adding the new roms is still open somehow but its not being displayed on screen?) and the only way of closing out of LB is through task manager. Its not a crazy problem that needs immediate attention but a minor inconvenience nonetheless...

Many thanks in advance for any answers/fixes!

Hi there, 

Thanks for the report here. We've actually been hunting down an issue for a while now that sounds similar to this. I tried to run the same repro steps as you but unfortunately, I couldn't reproduce the behaviour. If you can reliably reproduce the issue, would you mind recording a quick screen recording outline so I can ensure I'm following your steps 100%. 

That, and please let me know what LaunchBox version you're using.

Cheers,

Hey! Sorry for the delayed response... I've attached a small video recording of the issue. I'm using the latest version of LB. Note that, even though i'm not showing it on the video, the file explorer window that Im taking the ROM from is also frozen.

Thanks for taking the time to answer!
