Hi All

Hopefully someone can help with this...

For the last couple of days Launchbox has crashed if I try to update the metadata database. When I try I get the following error:

Unable to download the updated metadata: No such host is known. (gamesdb.launchbox-app.com:443)

If I try to download media (from the LB tab, not EM) I get the following error:

The requested name is valid, but no data of the requested type was found. (images.launchbox-app.com:80)

I can download from the EM without issue.

I've tried reinstalling LB over the top of my existing install but it doesn't help.

I also tried installing a completely separate instance of Launchbox in a different folder. However, this has the same problem. 

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Regards

 

Jonathan

Hmm, I installed Launchbox on my other computer and all seemed OK.

SFC /Scannow didn't help and DISM RestoreHealth got stuck...

I did a full in-place repair and the issue seems to have gone away. Something in my Windows install must have got corrupted somehow. 

The good news is it doesn't seem like a Launchbox issue :)
