I'm all good now - uninstalling and reinstalling PinballX resolved my problem. After realizing the paths in the reg entries I posted were missing a folder between E:\ and PinballX it all made sense. I believe I got myself into this situation my Installing into E:\Pinball\PinballX, hitting some other problem, reinstalling into E:\PinballX (without uninstalling the first), realizing that didn't solve my problem, then deleting that and using the original. Horrible mistake, entirely my fault. Thank you so much for the help.

It's quite possible I've picked up the wrong version. Here's everything related to those two reg entries: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Visual Pinball] "DisplayName"="Visual Pinball" "UninstallString"="E:\\Pinball\\uninstall.exe" "DisplayIcon"="E:\\Pinball\\VPinballX.exe" "DisplayVersion"="10.7.0.0" "Publisher"="vpforums community" "URLInfoAbout"="http://www.vpforums.org" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{53F4530D-803D-482A-86DD-F82D8EC7D628}_is1] "Inno Setup: Setup Version"="5.6.1 (u)" "Inno Setup: App Path"="E:\\PinballX" "InstallLocation"="E:\\PinballX\\" "Inno Setup: Icon Group"="PinballX" "Inno Setup: User"="johnt" "Inno Setup: Selected Tasks"="" "Inno Setup: Deselected Tasks"="desktopicon,demo,pin2dmd" "Inno Setup: Language"="English" "DisplayName"="PinballX 5.40" "DisplayIcon"="E:\\PinballX\\PinballX.exe" "UninstallString"="\"E:\\PinballX\\unins000.exe\"" "QuietUninstallString"="\"E:\\PinballX\\unins000.exe\" /SILENT" "DisplayVersion"="5.40" "Publisher"="Spesoft" "URLInfoAbout"="http://www.spesoft.com/" "HelpLink"="http://www.spesoft.com/" "URLUpdateInfo"="http://www.spesoft.com/" "NoModify"=dword:00000001 "NoRepair"=dword:00000001 "InstallDate"="20220219" "MajorVersion"=dword:00000005 "MinorVersion"=dword:00000028 "VersionMajor"=dword:00000005 "VersionMinor"=dword:00000028 "EstimatedSize"=dword:0002277b I've PM'd you a link to the two full exported branches if you need more. Thank you!

I'm new at this and just trying to get my PinballX database in order. I have PinballX and VpinballX working properly (enough), but after installing the Database Manager, I instantly get: Could not find PinballX installation Directory The message could also appear if you uninstalled a supported GameEX app that was uninstalled after the last use of this program. Rerun this program to automatically fix it otherwise install PinballX or Touchplay via the installation program Quitting program 2/19/2022 4:13:39 PM : PinballX Database Manager (Version: 22.02.17.0) 2/19/2022 4:13:39 PM : Initialize Start : ... 2/19/2022 4:13:39 PM : Action Log Update - WARNING : Could not determine the GameEX application for managing the database(s).

My PinballXDatabaseManager.ini contains nothing but: [Main] GameExApp I've tried reinstalling PinballX and the Database Manager, and I've even tried putting them both in the same directory on the C:\ drive into a directory without spaces - but it changed nothing. How is it trying to determine the location of the PinballX database? Any help is appreciated.
