Windows 7 Game Manager manages all games

I would like to mention Win7's game manager. I believe everyone is no stranger. Because it can integrate many games into one window and display the details of each game completely, it is very convenient for us to choose the game we like to play. But the only fly in the ointment is that Windows 7 Game Manager only supports the display of certain games developed by Microsoft itself (such as "Red Heart Wars"). So, can we add any game that we usually like to play to Win 7's game manager? The answer is certainly yes. Next, the author will add the classic FPS game “Counter Strike” as an example to introduce how to achieve.

Let third-party games appear in the game manager

The games that Win7 Game Manager can display by default are because each game's details are saved to the registry. Therefore, we add a custom game to this game manager "Counter Strike", also have to modify the registry to achieve. But before modifying the table, we must obtain the specific values ​​of the three parameters SID, GUID, and FileTime related to modifying the registry.

Entering commands to view individual values

Tip: SID is a security identifier that identifies users, groups, and computer accounts. The only number.

A GUID is a globally unique identifier that is a 128-bit hexadecimal integer generated by a specific algorithm.

FileTime is the file time, which means that a given file is created, last accessed, or last written at a specific date and time.

Click “Start →Run”, then type PowerShell in the pop-up "Run” dialog and press Enter to run PowerShell, then in the window shown above Enter the next three DOS commands (press the Enter key for each DOS command):

whoami /user

[Guid]::NewGuid()

[ ,null,null,3],DateTime]::MaxValue.ToFileTime()

After completing the above operation, copy the specific values ​​of the three parameters SID, GUID, and FileTime generated in Figure A——C to Notepad for backup. .
