Hi All,

I'm running LaunchBox 13.24 on Windows. I recently had a HDD failure and needed to migrate files into a new drive. I had previously kept my roms in a separate drive from my main directory, but I'm taking this opportunity to consolidate everything to a third, new location.

As I understand it, I can move my main Launchbox directory without any additional changes (and it looks like that works). Then, I want to move my roms into that new directory, which I do manually, then point to them using File Management>Change Roms Folder...

That generally seems to work, however: a) when I open LaunchBox, it's creating 'Images' subdirectories in my previous Launchbox directory; and b) if I go to tools>manage platforms, I get an error that "A directory could not be created" and it lists the drive that died, and where roms used to be stored.

I suspect that these are two different issues, but I don't know what I did wrong. Searching for answers isn't yielding any results. Any tips?

 

Thanks!

Nevermind. I found this and it looks like it worked: 

It turns out it was the same error (though I don't know why). I just needed to manually update the XML file.
