Colorman3605 Posted August 20 Posted August 20 The same thing happens to me when I exit an emulator or a Steam game. The only way to terminate Launchbox is through Task Manager. 1 Quote
andyco47 Posted August 20 Author Posted August 20 just played mame game thro bigbox and exit it the game and bloody froze yet again 1 Quote
CaptainGreenhat Posted August 20 Posted August 20 (edited) I wasn't having problems but suddenly it hard locked and now the app itself is bricked and the executable won't even launch through windows gui. I was able to force a launch through windows cli though. Edited August 20 by CaptainGreenhat Quote
Eckers569 Posted August 21 Posted August 21 Exactly the same issue. I can launch games (only MAME tested so far) but when i escape back to BigBox it's crashed. Secondary video is still playing but it's otherwise completely unresponsive. Maybe it's this new media thing and 'legacey' themes - I'm using a custom theme built via the Community Theme Editor which itself hasnt been update for a long time now. I'm going to roll back to 13.27 I think which was the last version i was on before updating today. Quote
andyco47 Posted August 21 Author Posted August 21 13.27 is ur best bet till they sort it out but dont no when that will be. Quote

Fortunatey it is really easy to roll-back when this happens - and none of the new stuff since is a big deal to me anyway. My 'clean' build on a different PC with an off-the-shelf theme seems fine.

How do I roll back? I searched for 13.27 and get articles about it but no download links. Quote

Check your Updates folder in LaunchBox for older installs and if you don't have anything there you'll need to reach out to support via https://forums.launchbox-app.com/contact/ to get a download link for the older version.

Gaz70 Posted Tuesday at 06:02 PM Posted Tuesday at 06:02 PM I'm having this issue too. Only since upgrading to 14. Doesn't hang every single time but more often than not. Does it generate any log files that are of any use admin? Quote
