I do not mean to rain down negative on the achievement, it's a feature a lot of people have asked for and deserves to be in the add-on. But I don't use multiple instances of Advanced Launcher, I dont intend to use categories and as such, all it seems to do is create an unnecessary step to getting to the emulators/games.
Code:
plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher
start it like this :
Code:
plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher/?default
Then you will open Advanced Launcher directly into the default category as before version 2.x. There is no possibiliy to disable the categories support.

Just use the "home" button instead of the "back" button.

Or is there an updated video guide on how the new feature works and even cooler if it would show a way to get around that extra step.Ok... so if you do not need to use Advanced Launcher version up to 2.0.0, then use version 1.13.1 and disable the repo. Other solution : if you use Advanced Launcher only for emulators, it will be maybe a better idea to use RCB instead.
Switch from version 1.x to 2.x of Advanced Launcher is not a simple minor update, it's a huge modification of the Advanced Launcher base code with a different approach to manage and start application from Advanced Launcher.
