Installed a game as "executable" instead as an "installer" #618

Expected behavior

Installed game launches (Mass Effect: Andromeda)

Actual behavior

Installed game takes disk space and GameHub launches the installer, instead of the game.

Steps to reproduce

IDK if you can reproduce it. I run the setup.exe and it launched the game the first time properly. I shutdown the system, and the next time it just starts the installer again.

I think I might have understood this issue.

It seems like you default to "Executable" and there is a tab, called "Installer"

I would strongly suggest, that "Executable" and "Installer" get switched, so this kinda of confusion wont happen anymore. Most people would probably anyway use Installer, and if someone gets it wrong the other way ("installing" an executable") there wont be as much damage.

Now, 40GB or something are taken by a game, that I can not find and also not play.
