If there is a meaningful scenario I can make it global too (it's only a bit to add).

I guess most people have A1200s with enough memory, and obviously WinUAE to make it a worthwhile edition.

If enabled, maybe the preload tooltype can actually disable it per game if required for a specific game?

Preload/S has been made a global option. Beta can be found here http://whdload.de/whdload/whd184.lha

Only stupid people don't change their minds. Thanks Bert. What is the option/is there a counter local option then?

There is no local counter ATM and no plans to add one.

Wow that's great ! Thanks so much Wepl!!!
Now X-Bench can run with preload even if it fails to read the tooltypes (like it always does if you scan folders when booting independently). While XBench gets fixed, this works great

Bonus: free up disk space by deleting game icons I don't need!
