LaunchBox will not start

Issue #2233 new
Former user created an issue

The other day my Dell PC running windows 10 decided to update it's self. when it was done I was no longer able to start Launchbox...BigBox was working just fine. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling LaunchBox,but once I did that now BigBox won't start either.When I reinstalled LaunchBox and it went to start up I seen it on my desktop for a moment then it disappeared......Here is the message that came up on my screen (Problem with Shortcut) The item LaunchBox.exe that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved,so this shortcut will no longer work properly . Do you want to delete this shortcut?.......The message would say (Setup) Unable to execute file: C:\User\mike\LaunchBox\LaunchBox.exe

CreateProcess failed;code 2 The System cannot find the file specifiedVersion 7.3

System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): The system cannot find the file specified at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithShellExecuteEx(ProcessStartInfo startInfo) at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(ProcessStartInfo startInfo) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Wpf.BigBox.App..ctor() at () at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Wpf.BigBox.App.Main()

I also tried turning off my Mcafee and reinstalling LaunchBox still nothing. I would appreciate any help you could provide.....thank you so much and Happy New Year! Mike

    can you launch launchbox without the shortcut by double clicking launchbox.exe or bigbox.exe? if that works, just create new shortcuts by right clicking the exe files. if you can't launch the exe due to an error, i would suggest installing launchbox again, to a different folder maybe.
