Big problem: LB doesn't start anymore!

[legolas119]

Hi

starting from today, i'm not able anymore to start LB. It appears this error message:

Yesterday (28 of July) LB perfectly works. I could restore the backup of yesterday evening? How I can do that?

 

thank you!

From the LaunchBox for Windows - Strategy Guide:

Backing Up and Restoring Your LaunchBox Setup - LaunchBox

thanks

but i can't restore the back as suggested by the guide as LB doesn't start...it continue to appear these 2 pop up:

The Populating Parents procedure doesn't finish and it still continue to run...if i push OK to the pop up, LB crashes and closes...

Thank you!

Sorry. I figured the article may have talked about doing a manual restore. (obviously I didn't read through it)

manual restore (for this case of a corrupt ListCache.xml file)

• Go into /LaunchBox/Backups/ and look for a zip file that is dated before this issue occurred.
• Open the zip file
• Copy the ListCache.xml file that's in there in your /LaunchBox/Data/ folder. Replacing (overwriting) the existing one that's there.
• Start LaunchBox
