7-
mc?:/APPFOLDER/ but this needs an matching mc?:/BM/APPS/APPFOLDER/APPINFO/PBT
8-
as there is a bug where we can not search for mc?:/*/APPINFO.PBT sadly. So this is a workaround.
9-
This is nice as apps will show in the OSDSYS now.

Also:

nonmc?:/APPFOLDER

26-
However the setting is still saved so swapping your memcard between PS2s if you

have multiple chips still functions as you set it.

- Added PowerShell scripts to create APPINFO.PBT recursively and non recursively.
34-
needs title.cfg included in app folder to create. However if apps need specifically
35-
boot command IE `SHUTDOWN MM` or SET `"BM.AUTOLOAD_FSD_EN" "0"` may need to be added to the
36-
run section. For example wLE ISR needs SHUTDOWN MM to run from USB.
37-
Also need to add REDIRFILE for the apps that support it.
