Ghozer   112 #1 Posted May 26, 2018 I have recently noticed something odd, interesting, useful and good, but also odd... (as I hadn't noticed it until recently, and it's not something that's "normal" till now)  Windows seems to have detected where i'm installing my Games, and automatically suggesting that location in the future..  When I recently reinstalled, I set up Windows and all it's updates, then installed Steam, Steam suggested it's default Program Files location, I told it to go to C:\Games..  I did this for another game, then when I installed battle.net launcher, and installed a game via that, it automatically suggested the C:\Games folder...  It also has also done it for other games since..

outlander   10 #2 Posted May 27, 2018 I had the same experience back in 98. Though it was not always guaranteed to know my preference! Back then some games i had to correct ini files and reg entries. Eventually with all the cheat files I had to fix up I gave up. My bat file game menu list ran executables nicely though c games neatened that up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
