- Cursor removal with nomousey and recommend a delayed script to activate allowing time to select the game from the game menu
 
**Note – All the games play well but this is a rough solution and not very front end friendly so any script updates that launch the game directly are welcome.**

 - Sentinel
 
SAMPLE AHK SCRIPT

sleep, 12000
Run, G:\nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide
$Esc::
 Process,Close,EMU7800.exe
