hard crash while using platform edit

[Gil Gardner]

using the 13.6 version of launchbox and i moved games to new hard drives and when i try and relink them with edit platform, the software crashes and opens a window for every file that i was trying to relocate. Crash also happens when using edit emulator settings.

Thanks for the report. This happens specifically when you have configured a folder to a path that currently doesn’t exist when you try editing or navigating around your platforms, so as long as your paths exist, you won’t see this. This is why it’s fairly rare for users to report it. It’s one of those deep, systemic, issues that’s been around in the app for a long time, and therefore a fix could surprisingly be a very risky one, but we will keep track of it using this ticket and put it on our long list to tackle at some point.

As a user of external drives whether directly connected or over a network, this bug really impacts a user like myself.
