English Amiga Board - View Single Post - Possible to run WHDLoad games as Read-only?

I'm thinking about trying to run WHDLoad games (in .lha archives from Retroplay) as bootable read-only archives in WinUAE, but some of these games require the saving of high-score tables or other info into the folder, but of course, WinUAE doesn't allow the alteration of such archives.

So how can I get WHDLoad to redirect or prevent the writing of such info. Or is there an alternative?
