Compiled Flash .exe files

Hey all,

I have an Adobe Flash program that's compiled to an .exe. I've put it in portableapps, but the menu item shows up as "Shockwave Flash" and not what the exe is named. How can I fix this? I've seen associated appinfo.ini files with program info, but it dosn't seem to affect what's shown in the menu list.

We're using portableapps to show off our company demos, but having a list of 10 items that say "Shockwave Flash" is no good at all.

Edit: I guess a simpler questions would be when will be get the ability to change Portableapps' menu names? This would solve the whole problem...

Thanks for any ideas.

Not sure if it's the problem,

Not sure if it's the problem, but you probably have to edit it's version information.

What the menu finds

for the menu name is the description. Use something like XN Resource Editor Portable to change what it says on the menu.
It should be under

-Version
   -(Number, perhaps 1)
       -Language Nuetral (It could be en or english, I'm unsure).

Say, how do you compile Flash?

Within Adobe Flash, you just

Within Adobe Flash, you just publish to a 'Windows Projector' .exe file (under Settings)

XN Resource Editor Portable looks very promising! (but it eats the exe... guess Adobe doesn't want you messing with it, ha)
