FindRomCover accepts optional command-line arguments to pre-fill the ROM and image folders. This is useful for launching the application from a launcher, a script, or a file manager.

FindRomCover.exe [ImageFolder] [RomFolder]

Only existing directories are accepted. If a path does not exist, it is ignored and the application starts with the stored folders instead.

Start with only the image folder:

FindRomCover.exe "D:\Covers"

Start with both folders and scan immediately:

FindRomCover.exe "D:\Covers" "D:\ROMs"

Use it from a shortcut or batch file:

@echo off
start "" "C:\Tools\FindRomCover\FindRomCover.exe" "D:\Covers" "D:\ROMs"

• Quote paths that contain spaces.
• The scan uses the same logic as Check for Missing Images; the status bar shows the result.
• Folder paths are stored, so the next start without arguments reuses them.
• There are no other switches; all other behavior is configured through the application menus.
