Stop popup/checking for emulator setting when editing console games
I have added a few roms I regularly play to my Steam library as non-steam games. (see here for a guide) I do this because I want to show my friends when I'm playing these games, so I won't get too many messages as I sometimes stream my games to Twitch and the like.
I have found that Launchbox can run these non-steam games just like regular steam games, by adding the created URL to Launchbox (for example: steam://rungameid/9841611920354836480). The feature works properly, and everything would be fine and dandy... if I didn't get this popup every single time I click Ok on the "Edit game" window on those games.
This also happens when I try to simply make my Playstation 1 games use ePSXeCutor to load games, which don't use rom paths as the argument, but its own named profile system.
This is, quite frankly, annoying when working with my library. Could a developer either A: provide a checkbox to let me choose never to see the message again, or B: even better, detect the use of steam:// protocols and applications in the Application Path on a game before popping up that message.

Sorry for all the changes. I'm bad at thinking things through.. lol

This is starting to become very irritating, and seeing as how simple of a fix it would be, I have upped it to a major bug.

I updated the name of this bug as it's a major annoyance and not getting the attention it deserves after months of waiting. It's also a simple addition of a checkbox setting in the configuration or in the window itself.
