Hello, newbie here. I have a question to ask: how to you input files from the "program files" directory? An example of a file to run would be C:\Program Files\Folder1\Folder1a\game.exe. How would I input this into DOSBox? I have tried everything, including looking up info on the internet. Thanks.

Or best of all, don't use long file names. Move Folder1 from the Program Files folder so your path would be C:\Folder1

Nothing wrong with typing progra~1 in my opinion, it's a lovely thing to type 😀
