On the Linux Desktop (or desktop mode) we added the option of open and run various files directly with RetroDECK.
In these examples we will be using the [Little Medusa - Demo](https://megacatstudios.com/pages/little-medusa) a `.nes` file called `LittleMedusa_8bitdemo.nes` from Mega Cat Studios.

in this example the `LittleMedusa_8bitdemo.nes` file is inside the `retrodeck/roms/nes` folder and when clicking on it RetroDECK opens it with the Nintendo Entertainment System emulator and the game starts.
In this example, the `LittleMedusa_8bitdemo.nes` file is inside the `retrodeck/roms/nes` folder.
RetroDECK knows that because you opened it from the `/roms/nes` foler the game must correspond to that system.

### Example 2: The game is outside the roms folder

In this example, the `LittleMedusa_8bitdemo.nes` file is not inside the `retrodeck/roms/nes` folder but in the `download` folder.
When clicked, RetroDECK will prompt a dialog window asking which system the file belongs to and then run it.
