      @PaulyW84 Hum... Strange, if UXS can access the folder for the "selection" (with the wizzard) he must can access it after :S
      Yes, please send me a pastbin of your log.txt (the "single one", not the one with number ;) )

      @hooperre I'm sorry, I can't reproduce your problem :(
      I have exactly your configuration now (except for the main path) and it work well ><
      Can you : delete all your UXS folder except the main EXE (Universal_XML_Scraper64.exe or Universal_XML_Scraper.exe) and relaunch it. It will recreate all the file and reset all your config. You just need to go to Configuration/MIX/Download Mix to redownload the 4img MIX. And put your path to your rom. and try again... I really don't understand why UXS don't understand the MIX on your PC :(

        @screech Gutted. Just deleted and restarted and same issue. The last working version for me was 2.1.0.6 with MIX files.

        2.1.0.6 Log.txt: https://pastebin.com/qtUJGc5n
        2.1.0.6 TEMP/config.xml: https://pastebin.com/7UBi2R7z

        Edit: Just realized this last log file doesn't help because the program crashed on opening.

              Does this error shed any light? Just happened when I ran the 32-bit version.

                @screech Ahh!

                0_1504316108783_Untitled.png

                I changed the image type to .jpg and it downloads the alt file as a .jpg and the MIX as a .png. Not sure why/how/whatever, but it works for me if need be!

                Log File: https://pastebin.com/AEGBXGaS

                Edit: Seems like the only funky thing is that a lot of the wheel art/carts aren't showing up correctly. For example I know this game has a wheel art...

                        @paulyw84 Same. And I was having Windows defender type problems. With previous releases, I wasn't even able to download the .exe or .zip files. Wonder if it's still causing us headaches.

                        ETA: Even when I disable Windows Defender for it, it will assert itself.

                          @screech Any other suggestions please? Still won't let me scrape. Have checked my antivirus and firewall settings.

                            @PaulyW84 You have this message when you launch a Scrape, UXS try to start the "engine" and engine don't start...

                            Try to delete your UXS folder (except the main EXE) and relaunch it (it will recreate all the file)

                              @screech still the same unfortunately.

                              Have tried your suggestion and have also redownloaded the program but still the same. I tried both versions https://github.com/Universal-Rom-Tools/Universal-XML-Scraper/releases/download/2.2.0.3/Universal_XML_Scraper.exe and https://github.com/Universal-Rom-Tools/Universal-XML-Scraper/releases/download/2.2.0.3/Universal_XML_Scraper64.exe have also tried running as administrator.

                              Have tried scraping off my portable hard drive and also my main hard drive but I get the same message every time that the roms folder can't be reached.

                                @paulyw84 for me, it only run the Silent_UXS shortcut.

                                Best scraper ever!

                                  Hi @screech! Thank you for your soft., is very useful!

                                  I've got a question. There is a way to scrape new roms into an existing list without overwrite the previous one? I say this because sometimes I want to change the default scraped name (for example "Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles" by "Ninja"), and I do it manually with the option "edit metadata" in the GUI; and then, when I make a new scrap on my list, I would like to keep those changes.

                                  I've tried the "Update XML (Add New Rom)" option in General Configuration, but it doesn't work.

                                  Thank you for your work again!

                                      Hi,
                                      currently testing different scraper.
                                      Is it possible to get images like this one here: https://www.dafont.com/forum/attach/orig/2/5/253715.jpg
                                      using XMS scraper?

                                      Regards
                                      fenris

                                        @fenris So only the boxart? I believe there are options where you can select what image should be used. If not, it should be possible to edit the profile manually.

                                          thanks for your reply.
                                          Do you know where i can change that on Windows?

                                          Regards

                                            @fenris You can change all the options under "Options" > "Visual". Go to "Visuel Type" and set it to "Simple Visual". Then use "2D Cover" under "Default Visual" for the simple box art or "3D cover" for the 3D box art.

                                            What I like to do is to also set "Screenshot" for "Alt Visual" in case there is no cover art available. And also "Wheel" under "Marquee" for the simple style marquee. I hope this helps.
