I have been using and enjoying LB/BB, but after a couple years of using Retroarch, I just can't deal with it anymore and think I would prefer to use individual emulators. The biggest problem is that I use specific controllers for different consoles. Partly for the nostalgia to be tactile and not just the game. The other part is Gamecube and N64 feel "wrong" on an Xbox controller. If I choose to just have LB launch directly to the emulator, what am I missing out on/sacrificing? Thank you.

So I paid for this software for lifetime license after finally finishing building my rom collection i L really like the UI of the desktop application, I tried to setup bigbox but it’s so clunky after changing few settings now every time I boot into it after few seconds of scrolling it crashes every time.

I expected more quality from main feature that’s paid wish I just built my collection on retrobat or playnite.

Edit: seems like deleting bigbox settings and whipping themes that I’ve installed fixed it maybe.

I think the problem is that custom themes suck on this platform and default theme works best and functions best so I’ll stick to this.

Never completes this process, I have restarted my PC Unplugged my router for a hard reset, still does it. I cant stop the process or I just get a spinny circle. Cant update it manually because I cant stop the automatic process.

This release brings major upgrades to RetroAchievements, Save Management, setup flows, and media handling across LaunchBox & Big Box 🎮

Save Management has also received a huge expansion, adding automatic backups, save version history, grouped saves, and brand-new Dolphin & PCSX2 save support for GameCube, Wii, WiiWare, and PlayStation 2.

📥 Better Setup & Media Handling

We’ve also overhauled the Welcome Wizard with clearer staged progress and better setup visibility, alongside new in-app video playback controls, restored Steam trailer downloads, smoother media browsing, and plenty more polish throughout the app.

🧺 System Tray Support Is Now Free

Oh, and tray support is also now completely free for all users!

Could I add multiple startup videos and have them launch randomly when Big Box starts?

I can't open Launchbox anymore after installing 13.27 update. I now get an "inner exception" error that pops up when I try to start Launchbox.

"Could not load file or assembly '...\Launchbox\Core\Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.dl"

Any ideas on how to fix this?
