[Bug] Game Switcher exit flow navigates into hidden .m3u folder instead of parent menu #813

Description

@HahBikes

Context / Environment

  • Feature: Game Switcher & Multi-disc .m3u handling

Expected Behavior

When exiting a game launched via the Game Switcher:

  1. Exiting returns the user to the Game Switcher.
  2. Pressing Back (B / Back) from the Game Switcher should return the user to the higher-level menu or main games list where the title was originally selected.

Current Behavior

  • Launched directly from Games Menu (Resume or Open): Exiting and pressing Back correctly returns the user to the top-level Games Menu. No issue occurs.
  • Launched via Game Switcher: Exiting and pressing Back drops the user directly inside the subfolder containing the .m3u file and individual disc images, exposing the internal directory structure that should be hidden.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Set up a multi-disc game with an .m3u playlist in its subfolder per the documentation guidelines.
  2. Launch the game from the Game Switcher (or open it once so it appears in the recent list, then launch it via Game Switcher).
  3. Exit the game to return to the Game Switcher screen.
  4. Press Back to return to the menu navigation.
  5. Observe: The UI opens directly inside the subfolder housing the .m3u and ROM files instead of taking the user one level up.
