  2. Right click Frogger2.exe and click Create a New Shortcut.
  3. Right click the new shortcut and select Properties on the drop down menu.
  4. In the target for the properties, add -c a the end of the very end of the target.
  5. Click Apply at the bottom of the properties window to save your changes.
Launching the shortcut should now lead you directly to the graphics setup menu.

Game Crashes On Launch

Run the game as an administrator[citation needed]
  1. Right click on <path-to-game>\Frogger2.exe and click Properties.
  2. Click on the Compatibility tab and check the "Run this program as an administrator" checkbox.
  3. Click Apply, then click OK.
