I had to type  "Battle" or even "Bat" in the search box when I open a Scenario after starting the Mod using "cw.exe".
This then lists files with a similar name.
This gives the option to pick "Battle.btl"  my save file.

Even though the bottom prompt still lists ".scn" files it does load my save.


I am still curious though ,is the only way to start this Mod by using "cw.exe" ,as in the vanilla game has a game launcher called "autorun.exe"  in contrast to start off a game?

cw.exe is the start file.

autorun.exe is a file used when burning the game to a CD/DVD. The CD player will "see" that file, read it, and launch the game. If you change its name to autorun.txt and open it, you can see the code pointing it to launch the start file, which could be anything.

A bit of history: Autoruns became a bit of a nightmare since they could use them to launch viruses. That's why corporations especially told employees to turn off the auto-launch feature for their CD/DVD players.
Resolve then, that on this very ground, with small flags waving and tinny blasts on tiny trumpets, we shall meet the enemy, and not only may he be ours, he may be us. --Walt Kelly
