I am sorry I didn't make myself clear in my statement. As you point out, JSGME does not open until I click "Yes."

Odd behaviour. Whenever I click on an exe file that invokes UAC my screen goes black and a confirmation box appears and I cannot click anywhere else; certainly can't click on the taskbar. As this is Windows UAC behaviour, there's nothing I can do about it (ie, JSGME isn't even running when you get the permission box).

Not useful for SH3CMDR users. I would like to have the option to open SHx or CMDR. Similarly, when I open SH4 or SH5 to play the game (not test), I open these games via the song randomizer, not by the SHx.exe file.
In other games or in the future with the SHx games, new pre-programs may be added that one would want to open first. As an example Nicolas has a couple of programs that one must activate before launching the game exe program. I am sure other mods might be added in the future that require pre-launch.

Good points. Add to that command line switches that may also be required/optional and it becomes messy fast. I'll drop those two features now.

Perhaps, if I decide to update SH3Cmdr, I could extend the existing functionality of running SH3Weather.exe (if it exists) before SH3.exe to running any user-defined exe file? Means you could enter a string of files and SH3Cmdr will happily run them in order before finally executing SH3Cmdr. But I digress...
