hmm, im on win 11 too and dont have any issues. im really not sure right now.

No data to clear i am aware of. Not really sure right now. Anything else change on the machine? Does it work with previous version? What type of video file is it? if the path is in the movie field it will search for info on a new install.

What happens, just black screen when you select a video? Was it working before, anything changed? I wonder if its stopping at the part it gets movie data from my server perhaps. ill try with your ini shortly Edit; you said new install had issue too. It could be video card maybe but you should get something in the log.

Did you try and play a video with that log?

I wasnt aware of that bug. i was planning to look at the screenshots though as some said they were not showing up.

Working fine for me. I didnt test an external player. Is that what you are trying to do? i just used the default theme. Does that work?

its not broken that i am aware of. its possible i guess but your the first to report it. ill test in a minute but you know the drill about log files etc.

Yes, remove the controls.ini path.

I might just be behind the times but what is -Extminimized?

Im not using the insider program other than tests in a vm as i want something stable day to day and its only the dev and canary channel that are of interest to me. I know you need the dev or canary channel though for 24h2 so you may not be on it. (I wouldnt recommend the dev or canary channel if you get work done on the machine). When 24h2 becomes beta Ill probably join you.

Since Open shell works now I've moved to 11. I noticed the 7 zip support but I still use 7 zip GUI. I guess it means though they scan inside your files when a government asks them to as the world moves toward compulsory csam! Not sure if I'm just set in my ways but I have no need for AI search, or a start menu that sucks donkey dick. I have used AI but AI in an OS is just unnecessary bullshit for advanced users in my opinion. Probably a groundbreakingly step forward for people with serious disabilities though. Which is the upside and noble prize stuff. Which insider channel do you use?

So I quickly tested the following. All install and work without issue. I downloaded with Edge and used the embedded Windows extraction. GameEx, GameEx Arcade Edition, PinballX, Lav Filters, Open Shell and Instant Sheller. So it seems there is maybe a naughty list for certain apps or this guy was talking shit! 7zip also also installed without issue. Windows 11, version 24H2 (26100.2) amd64 That is how it went for me. I tested with VPN inactive and using the normal pihole blocklist

If you want to try Windows 11 24h2 without joining the insider program this seems to work well. https://uupdump.net/ i am testing today.

So, its still in testing and not even a beta but I came across this yesterday. Its on my list to test my apps and pay Microsoft if needed. I'm not 100% sure if its just unsigned exes or certain ones and Microsoft manages a naughty list (or good boy list) but from the below it looks like any exe. You already have to pay Amazon, Google and Apple for the privilege of giving away free software so my take is I am seeing this going the same. On a positive note it has been reported that Apple is allowing emulators in their store.

It could be a windows update or an emu update that broke things. Windows broke background direct input in GameEx some time ago. Its possible. Its kind of why GameEx will never be finished.

Again, I think its an issue with GameEx and my burden to bare! You have the option of rolling back to an older version though until I get to it. There all here.

Well, you helped other folks who had the same question even if you still have an issue! PS: I just tested the FTP with filezilla and my "email" and password and see no current issues.

I have noticed issues with high refresh display rates but not in the latest version. Get the latest version. You are not on the latest version. You did a fresh install of Windows 10 then I assume you did all updates but did not do updates for GameEx itself? 03:35:50.71 09/04/2024: GameEx Core x64: Version 18.56: Starting Log GameEx 18.64 I have also noticed issues with onboard graphics when you also have dedicated graphics. Switching to dedicated graphics for the app fixed the issues. Please confirm you have done both those things and also tried lav codecs? There was also a new version I uploaded last week. Thanks, Tom.

I'm one of the few to still care if you are running Windows 7 or even XP but .net 6 is approaching end of life at the end of the year and assuming no issues; builds that use .net core based compile will be moving to the latest LTS release of .net (core based). This only supports the latest Microsoft Operating systems. I still plan to support .net 4 until it is not possible to do so and this will be your way forward on Windows 7 and below down to ancluding XP. View the full article

Well, it sounds like together we troubleshooted and identified it is a bug or issue with GameEx. It is down to me now to investigate further. Thank you for your patience.. Tom.
