Hello, I have downloaded exoDOS and it is located on a separate internal drive (G drive) to where my already existing LB is located (C drive). I have:

  1. Downloaded exoDOS 6.04
  2. Run Setup eXoDOS.bat (on G drive)
  3. Copied all of the data, manuals, music, images and videos folders from G-drive to my LB location
  4. Downloaded Link Shell Extension
  5. Created folders in my LB directory called eXoDOS\eXo\eXoDOS
  6. Right clicked on the 7,666 games in is G:\eXoDOS\eXo\eXoDOS
  7. Right clicked in the folders in step five and selected 'drop as symbolic link'

After all of this, when I attempt to launch a MS-DOS games on LB it says 'The ROM file you've specified does not exist.' The reason why I am wanting to leave everything in G drive is because I don't want to add over half a terabyte more to my C drive. Would anyone please be so kind as to tell me what I have done incorrectly? Thank you in advance.

EDIT: I saw in a post on Reddit someone said you have to move Parents.xml and Platforms.html from eXoDOS's Data folder into Launchbox's Data folder, so I did that and I still get the 'The ROM file you've specified does not exist' message.

I would post this in eXo's Discord Help Channel. You will likely get a lot more help right from the Project Team members there.

Thanks for the suggestion. I just joined Discord as I have never used it before. It looks damn confusing how it is laid out but hopefully I will get an answer there; thanks again.

The team there is pretty good about helping out. It is a good community and eXo makes sure everyone is treated kindly, so don't be afraid to ask them anything about any of the eXo projects
