Some fixes require passing command line arguments to programs.

Non-Steam

1. Create a shortcut to the program.
2. Right click on the shortcut and choose "Properties".
3. Make sure the "Shortcut" tab is selected.
4. In the "Target" field, you'll see a line like this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Evil Publishing\Rushed Game\game.exe"
5. Type the option (argument) after the double quotes. Make sure there is a space between the double quotes and between each argument. For example, after adding the -windowed option, the line will look like this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Evil Publishing\Rushed Game\game.exe" -windowed
