Go to the shortcut icon, right click, select properties. On the first window is the command line for starting the progra. Go to the end and just ahead of ".exe", replace the program name with MECH. You want to start the Mech.exe program.

Also, if you're running two sets (I have 7.1 and H2H loaded) you want to make sure the "Start In" text box points to the correct folder path or your saves and loads may go to the wrong place. Makes it tough to find the files to zip in PBEM.
