Editing Game Series or other details - incessant error crash

[David Medlin]

Here is a verbose lisiting of this error. I have had this problem since 5.x, going forward (beta or otherwise)

System.ArgumentException: Illegal characters in path. at System.IO.Path.CheckInvalidPathChars(String path, Boolean checkAdditional) at System.IO.Path.GetFileName(String path) at System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(String path) at LaunchBox.Data.Game.GetResourceFilesFromFolder(String folder, List`1 results, Boolean imagesOnly) at LaunchBox.Data.Game.GetFanartFilePaths() at LaunchBox.Controls.ImageGamesControl.SetBackgroundImage(Game game) at LaunchBox.Controls.ImageGamesControl.<selectionTimer_Tick>b__63_0() at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.RunInternal(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state, Boolean preserveSyncCtx) at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state, Boolean preserveSyncCtx) at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state) at System.Threading.ThreadHelper.ThreadStart()

Thanks David, will research.

Hi David, this appears to be caused by an invalid file path in an application path field or similar. I've added some safety to checks to help prevent this error when it's encountered. The fix should be in the next beta which is out later today. Let me know if you're still seeing it and I will re-open.

Every time I go to do a beta update (manual or otherwise)  I get a corrupted installer. That or I get a file in use Dropbox error. Thoughts?

Thanks, David. This is fixed now...just a corrupted upload for the latest beta.

I am still getting the same error.
