Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
your problem is not obvious ^^
Did you try on a new Windows session?
Personally when I start to have this type of problem I look around but I end up going back to a new installation of Windows or a Veeam backup.

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
Thank you. I did create a new user and it didn't work.
I do not think that reinstalling windows will be the cure.
Especially since Tartifless wrote Retrobat had issue with MFS2020 and MSI AFTERBURNER which i was using and uninstalled. I kept MFS2020 as this my gaming/siming PC. I was hoping retrobat would run on it and i still have my hopes high to find a solution. I'm just curious as to why the exe won't start. why having MFS2020 would prevent emulatorstation to start. it doesn't make any sense to me. Where did you read MFS was causing difficulties Tartifless?
Also, i read from a user who had the same issue this The problem is that that chipset does not support Vulkan. so I discovered it's important for older Intel PCs to go into reotrbat.ini and set the default video output to d3d11 AND the sound to dsound.
My PC is very powerful and relatively new (14900K and RTX4090) so i don't think this is the issue here but i would be curious to see if changing the sound adapter could solve the issue. I didn't see the possibity to do so in BatGui.exe (where that user say he made the change). I suppose this option is not available with latest versions of rertrobat.
FYI when i install RB, i have this window...
I have deactivated smartscreen...and am now installing Retrobat 5.1...let's see
So after turning off, once again antivirus but also this time smartscreen, the installed launched without this blue window.
I had the same issue as always.
I asked ChatGPT what he thought and he told me the error was most certainly a memory access denied.
I searched the web and found this....
https://kcm.trellix.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB96789
I may be wrong but I m thinking that the issue I have might be related to security patches...but again...i can't forget that tartifless wrote that MFS2020 was causing difficulties.

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
Hello,
I am just saying that based on similar issues research on the Web, these apps are known to have issues with clr.dll amd might be culprits.
I have a similar setup as yours also with windows 11 and no issues at all.

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
Thank you. Do I understand you correctly that while these apps might run perfectly (MFS2020) they may cause issue to emulatorstation.exe?
In any cased, computer is running awesomely...no issue what so ever.... I had an issue after i built it where computer would stop and i would get a watchdog, livekernel event 141 or so....so i did all possible tests (Mem, CPU, GPU...) you can think of, reinstalled..... everything is fine now as it was most likely my 4090 OC TI fan curve not properly setup... I thought default settings would work since i don't OC myself but appearently....it needed to run cooler due to spike causing it to freeze.
So i don't feel like reinstalling.
The last thing i'm curious aboiut is to what NET i should get.
Again, installing 3.5 wouldn't work, 4.8....PC told me didn't need to as I had 6.0 already.

Hello
You could try to uninstall .Net 6.0, to install others versions progressively. At least it couldn't be worst.
PS : do you prefer to continue in English, or in your French topic ?

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
Hi Getupor, i've got support here so that the french thread can be closed. Feel free to do so.
If I make any significant progress, maybe we should post it in the french section for our french speaking friends.
I really want to get to the bottom of this.
I'm sure it will help people.
Once again, thanks to all of you helping me.
I have a PIMAX crystal which installed the VC software with a chineese installer ([rtl]https://pitool.oss-accelerate.aliyuncs.com)[/rtl]
I wonder if that could be the reason ....
Will keep on digging.

No problem, feel free to continue from a post or another (just if it's easier for you in french, it could be also the same for the Retrobat team )

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
Guys,
Problem solved, I gave up and reinstalled windows.
Did not install bitdefender.
Installed right away retrobat 6.1.
At first, kind of same issue as before except i had a messahe appear when trying to launch a rom saying
AN ERROR OCCURED
THE TYPE INITIALIZER FOR EMULATORLAUNCHER.PROGRAM threw an exception.
I then installed nvidia and boom, it launched
I could have MFS2020 working on the same time....
I'll add drivers and other software and check each type if it works so we find the culprit.
I"ll report back.
Thanks again for all your help.
I really apppreciatred it.
Merci les gars

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
maybe try to make a windows restore point (or via a veeam), at least you should be able to go back if something creates a problem and the uninstallation does not correct it.
If Bitdefender is the culprit then there must be an option that is causing the problem. But in any case Defender Windows is enough... even though he's overzealous ^^ sometime

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
Great suggestion for the restore point.
I tried that befote uninstalling but it kept failing because of antivirus (message from windows saying that).
I like to have bitdefender on my devices. i have a yearly subscription for 10 devices...
especailly for he ransomware....i feel it protects beter than windows built in firewall and antivirus but i could be wrong
i read this though https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/built-in-protection?view=o365-worldwide

Re: [RESOLVED] GAMES WON'T LAUNCH
In case this helps anyone...i kept having issue with this system after all of this, not especially with retrobat, i realised i had bent socket pins on my CPU socket on motherboard, cpu was fine.
I was very suprised but replacing motherboard solved all my issues
