Hello. I was just wondering if there is a way to force windowed mode on games that don't have it as an option. Mainly for Warcraft III. I've tried applying -window, -w, -windowed which supposedly work. Maybe I don't know where to put them. In target I thought maybe after quotes,in quotes after exe, I don't know. I do know it gives me an error. Well thanks for any help in advance.

Copy and paste the WarCraft executable as a Shortcut, then append the option after the ending quote.
