Ad a new System to PinballX like Pinball FX3 or VPX 10.7 but dont start

[NEWER]

I want to ad a new System on my Pinball X Settings in my Pinball Cabinet

Iam using Windows 7 and the newest PinballX Version.

 

If i chosse a Table and lunch it, after 3 - 4 Seconds the Software goes back to the Main Menü to Choose another Table

 

This is my Settings.

Select System: 1: Visual Pinball 10.7
Name/Folder: Visual Pinball 10.7
Enabled: Yes
System Type: Visual Pinball
Working Pad: C:\Program Files (x86)\Visual Pinball
Table Path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Visual Pinball\Tables 10.7
Executable: VPinballX10.7.3.exe
Parameters: -Extminimized /play -"[TABLEPATH]\[TABLEFILE]"

Can anyone confirm that my settings are correct as there are many users who use Pinball X?

Please attach copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files for review (no copy and paste please).

Thanks.

P.S. Did you install following the instructions in the document enclosed with you PinballX installation?

For info, the general recommendation is NOT to install Visual Pinball to the Program Files folder. It is better to install to install to C:\Visual Pinball or similar. Not sure if the issue here is with windows permissions or not (copies of the requested files will help), but it may be better to reinstall Visual Pinball to a different location now rather than have issues later and have to move it then.

My Visual Pinball Old Version 921, or 993 working since 2017 perfekt.

Also my VPX  10.7 working perfekt in outside of PinballX.

Also Pinbal FX2 and FX 3 working good.

You think this can be a Problem?

My Old PinballX working over 7 Years good with this setup all was good.

You think that can be a Problem to Install my Visual Pinball in Program Files Folder??

Please provide the requested files whenever reporting an issue. It helps the team to know how you are setup and provides diagnostic info with minimal second guessing.

This looks normal and the game exited when the Exit button was pressed.

Is the issue still present?

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

Start VP in the 'invisible' minimized window mode, but with enabled Pause Menu
