A quick inquiry into Quick Play and a file not deleting.

I'm having an issue loading the Quick Play option for Default Example Game. This is the message that keeps cropping up.

Also, after I deleted the first test game files from my first saved example game, I can't get rid of the folder entirely. It just keeps saying Item Not Found, and that the file is located somewhere else (even though its 0 bytes and fully deleted).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Apologies for the issues! Unfortunately I haven't seen that error before, but based on the message it sounds like Quick Play can't find the executable it needs to run the game. If you look in your RPG in a Box installation folder, is there an "export_templates" subfolder with files inside it?

Regarding the file deletion issue, are the error messages displayed within RPG in a Box or in your file explorer? It sounds like that may be an OS issue. If you haven't already, you may want to try restarting to see if that allows you to delete the folder completely. Hopefully that helps!

That explains it! When I unpacked the files the "export_templates" folder was separated from the others. Works like a charm now!

As for the other solution regarding the OS and un-deletable file however, well, no such luck. It simply refuses to die so I may as well just ignore it for now.
