No browse game option on Razer Cortex

It used to be there before, but whenever I click the + sign on Razer Cortex to manually add a game, the browse game option isn't there anymore. I tried reinstalling but that didn't fix it either.

Hey there!

Thank you very much for sharing your concern here. My name is Michelle from the Razer Cortex PC technical support team. I will be happy to assist you with your issue.

Since the feature Browse is security-related, we removed it from a former version. Our engineering is investigating it and will add it in a future version.

Here could you please try the below method to add your game manually to Cortex?
If you can quickly find the game process (usually a .exe file), just create a desktop shortcut by right-clicking the file and choose Send to > Desktop(create shortcut), then, launch Razer Cortex and click the '+' icon. In the pop-up window, select the game to add it to MY LIBRARY.

If you cannot find the location of the game process, please follow the below steps:
Step 1. Please launch the game that you want to add to Cortex 'MY LIBRARY'.
Step 2. Open your Task Manager and find the game process which is a .exe file.
Step 3. Right-click the game process and choose the Open file location.
Step 4. A folder shows the location of the game process. Right-click it and click 'Send to'> 'Desktop(create shortcut)' to create a desktop shortcut of the game.
Step 5. Launch Razer Cortex and click the '+' icon on 'MY LIBRARY'. In the pop-up window, select the game to add.

Finally, check whether the game has been added to Cortex successfully.

Please feel free to let us know if you need further assistance.

Hi,

For some reason this still doesn't work, but I found another solution by just adding the game to steam as a non-steam game. After this it shows up in cortex.
That is great. Hope you have a great weekend.
