hmm. most emulators have under the 'file' menu a 'load recent' or just 'load' option that has the recent roms.

as for automating it, id have to look up something for ya if you dont like that idea lol

I know it can be done i used to have a... Wait. I got it just associate the rom w/ the emulator in the file association thing in windows. Set windows to open up that file with whatever emu ur using. I used to do that with snes roms a ZSNES

Thats an interesting thought. And intuitive. Its like working backwards, intead of using the emulator like he said, you are using the rom... I like it and ive also never thought of that :clap: :thumbup:
