Launching Games Folder from Programs Tab

[briggs]

Anyone know if there is a way to launch the entire games folder from the program launcher?

I have tried manually editing the shortcut through the registry to the games folder location in the start menu and I have also tried creating a .lnk file to the games folder and shortcuting to that but I always wind up with an error saying that 'Games' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted cerificte, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.


Any insights?

the cab there works great, thanks.

The only problem I see is that if you have the Games folder as a shortcut from your start menu, the _GamesFolder.lnk file the cab file instals to the windows directory will point to the wrong place.

If this is the case for you (like me) then open the _GamesFolder.lnk file in the Windows Directory and then remove "\Programs" from the shortcut argument.

Anyway I could get another version of that _FolderView.exe that shows 3 icons per row instead of 2?

Thanks again for quick response and expertise.

How can I reinvoke _FolderView.exe after it's already been invoked? Also, has anyone figured out how to get 3/4 icons per row, as briggs requested?
