After having good success with Vista overall only one thing really bugs me. The new games explorer. I figured that it wouldn't recognize some of my games but seems it only recognizes about half the games I install (some don't even appear in all programs). My solution was to drag and drop the exe's into the games folder and adjust the path so that it would find the game. unfortunetly it also keeps the name of the exe which is rarely ever the name of the game. I was wondering if anyone has found a solution to edit the names of games in the explorer.
