Hypersin runs, but will not launch game after a recent update for windows 10

[hollywood6964]

So I have the same build on on an arcade that isn't ran that much, is on windows 10 and gets updates, but not as many since it's not always on. It runs fine there and launches games.

However, some recent update (I don't know which, I don't run hyperspin on my main computer that much) has caused games to not launch through hyperspin. They will just fine through rocketlauncher, or just retroarch.When I hit enter on a game, it does nothing, the I just have to exit hyperspin. I tried to download and reinstall the latest hyperspin, and same thing. Here is the log I have, main thing I'm seeing is it can't find hyperlaunch.....something changed or maybe an update is a problem (probably an update in the last 6 months), anybody have a solution for this?

I'm going to bump. Hooked up the external drive to my arcade, and it works just fine, just not on this more updated windows 10. Anybody have anything. The .dll didn't work.

What version of windows do you have now?

Check Antivirus and Defender stuff and add exceptions to HS, try also to run HS as Admin (not suggested but it might resolve the issues)

Check also the path of your Hyperlaunch in Settings.ini

[Main]
Menu_Mode=multi
Single_Mode_Name=MAME
Enable_Exit_Menu=true
Enable_Exit=true
Exit_Default=yes
Exit_Action=exit
Version=1.0.0.0
Last_System=Atari Lynx
Hyperlaunch_Path=C:\HyperSpin_1.5.1\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe

I got it. Computer kept reassigning the portable hd to F, instead of E like it should be. So it was reverting to hyperlaunch and not working. Thanks for the .ini example, exacting what it was.
