TNU2002 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 (This request is for desktop version, not bigbox since I don't have premium.) So I use LaunchBox as a nice organizing shortcut for all my retro games, and my non-steam PC games too. But what I'd like to do is to add a bunch of programs' shortcuts (for example: Blender, Discord, paint.net, etc) on my computer to this, without having them unnecessarily mixed up with the games (I have alot of programs on my computer which are hard to locate at times). I was thinking that there could be another button or something to switch from "games view" to "program view". If this is a feature in premium or if there is a plugin, please inform me. Otherwise I'd love for this to be a feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 You can create a custom "Platform" and put your program shortcuts in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that could probably work since thats the filter I use most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hi and welcome to the community. This is already possible in launchbox, you can add any .exe on your system.I would suggest going to tools/manage platforms and creating a new platform, say Windows Programs, you can then use the add button in the bottom right to add a .exe just choose the platform from the dropdown towards the top right of the new window then browse to your .exe. Here is a shot of the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
