You load Commander first. It copies its specific files to the SH3 folders, which are now changed from read-only. You leave Commander running. You double click the Steam SH3 shortcut to load the game.

After play save game and exit. Return to Commander and exit. The Commander files are rolled back out of SH3 folders when it quits.

Thank you.
Once again, Steam users have an awkward workaround so they can do what everyone else does easily.

Anyone care to explain the upside?
