I know the title sounds confusing, so let me clear up. I recently downloaded a few itch games, and used desktop shortcuts to open them. Yesterday I got the itch app specifically so I can keep track of how long I have played each game. I decided to delete all the games and data on the games i had downloaded, and start from scratch.

But now, when I try to create a shortcut to a game, it doesnt add to the time played. Is there any way to get it to do this?
