Launchbox Crashing almost as soon as it starts up

[Abdulla Al-Mutawa]

After opening Launchbox, it crashes after a couple of minutes while it’s searching EmuMovies for Nintendo Wii U media, I tried to cancel scraping, but it will crash.

On beta 3

Is LaunchBox throwing an error when it crashes? If so can you copy/paste it to the ticket?

Thanks for this. I believe I have found the cause of this and it will be corrected in the next beta release. In the meantime you can do the following to get rid of this error:
Close LaunchBox (ensure it is completely closed, not to system tray)
Navigate to your \\LaunchBox\Data\ folder
Delete the ImageQueue.xml file
Reopen LaunchBox.

This will remove the queued downloads and allow you to start up LaunchBox normally.
