How does this work?

Changing a .exe file to an .iso file?

I tried renaming it, but I don't think that is right.

Well, it is either just renamed or it is a self extracting archive in which case it should have a proper icon. If it is just renamed it won't.

Make sure when renaming it that you rename it game.iso and not game.iso.exe

Well, when I rename it it creates a shortcut to it.

It has one of those MSDOS icons.

Disable the hiding of known file extensions so that you can rename it properly or rename it in a command prompt.

Easier and quicker just to rename the file extension.
