-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Version: ScummVM 2026.3.1git27850-g815ab673b68
 Game Version: FM Towns
 OS: Windows 11 x64
 Language: English

 1. Install Zak McKracken FM Towns Edition
 2. Enable Aspect Ratio Correction in Global Settings
 3. Enable Trim FM Towns to 200px height in Game Settings
 4. Run Zak McKracken, should not prompt alert for Aspect Ratio Correction
 issue
 5. Run Zak McKracken from the command line using --autostart, alert is
 prompted for the issue and height is not cut off in game

 I would expect both cases to apply the specified Game Settings in
 scummvm.ini, but that only seems to be working when game is launched from
 the GUI. The CLI should be able to apply these settings from the file
 and/or pass in a specific INI file with Game Settings for each game.
