One annoying thing I ran into a year or two ago is when Everything.exe is running, discord thinks it's the steam game called Everything. I had to rename the search Everything.exe to a different name to get around this.

Admittedly it's not voidtools fault, rather discords.



Why is it an issue if Discord thinks you're playing a game? Does your boss check that you're not playing games on Discord during work time or something?

IIRC if discord thinks you are playing that game all the time, you can't use discord when you play actual games. Or discord may behave differently when a game is running vs. not.

Oh no, I run discord at my home computer, and use the web interface at work ;)

I think the issue specifically was wanting discord to know the game that was actually running instead of an always running other mistaken game.
