Always show games from certain folder at startup?

Always show games from certain folder at startup?
My games folder contains all of my games and 2 other sub folders(for demos and mini games).
Sometimes I go to those folders and when I exit and start ppsspp again,ppsspp is in the last folder I left it.

Is there is some way or option I don't know about that will make ppsspp to always show the games from my games folder at startup...I can easily go back but is there is a way to do the above.

Unless I'm misunderstanding what you want, that's what the "pinning" feature is for. Just navigate to the folder you always want to be visible (visible as in it will be there for opening quickly, not always showing its contents) and click that plus button (the icon should really be changed to a pushpin, but alas).

Yes that's what I meant by "I can easily go back" but that's not exactly what I wanted.
I want every time I start ppsspp(no matter where was the last directory I opened and then close ppsspp),to also show my games folder when I start ppsspp when I click on the Games tab

D:\Games\PSP\Games - all the games
D:\Games\PSP\Games\DEMOS - close ppsspp when I'm in this directory
When I start ppsspp,clicking on the games tab will always show D:\Games\PSP\Games

Then no, it's not currently possible (as far as I know).

RE: Always show games from certain folder at startup?
Yeah, displaying games from multiple sources at once is not possible in the PPSSPP game browser at the moment. (Obviously the "Recent" tab is one way to do it, but you'd have to launch the games one at a time to add them there.)

If I'm understanding your demand correctly vsub_, you wish to see something like what Dolphin has with regards to its ability to choose multiple paths containing your games and to aggregate them in one single viewable location on the front end.

Um,no.
Start ppsspp=>choose a single directory that contains all of the games=>remember that directory as home directory,so no matter where you go from then on,every time you start ppsspp,the game tab will show the games from the home directory.

Like any browser...When firefox start: Show my homepage

Ah okay, so you want that view to be the default view everytime you boot up PPSSPP, got it.
