Showing/Hiding LaunchBox Platforms

From Tools -> LaunchBox -> Manage Platforms, you can access a window which allows you to toggle the visibility of entire LaunchBox platforms. This allows you to show or hide platforms in LaunchBox without removing them.

The way this works is by modifying the file extenstions of the files that LaunchBox uses to handle your platforms.
