📋 Summary

When importing games through Tools > Import > ROM Files > Single Platform, LaunchBox currently defaults to the LaunchBox installation directory when browsing for a folder. This request proposes having LaunchBox remember the last folder or file path used during import, to streamline the workflow for users with ROMs stored on separate drives or directories.

🎯 Feature Overview

• When selecting a folder during ROM import, LaunchBox should:

  • Default to the most recently used import path instead of the installation folder.

  • Optionally remember separate paths per platform, allowing smoother imports for multi-drive setups.

🛠 Example Use Case

• A user stores ROMs on an external drive (e.g., D:\Games\ROMs\SNES).

• Every time they import new games, they must manually navigate to this path.

• With this feature, LaunchBox automatically opens that folder, saving several clicks per import.

📦 Benefits

• Efficiency: Speeds up adding or updating games across multiple platforms.

• Convenience: Ideal for users managing large multi-drive collections.

• Quality of Life: Reduces repetitive navigation, especially for frequent importers.

💡 Notes

Future enhancement: Remember paths per import type (e.g., ROMs, Steam, GOG, etc.), ensuring consistent user experience across all import workflows.
