To load all games properly you need to chose the folder which contains the folder of the games. If C:\PS3\GAMES contains folders with different games then choose this folder not the folder of only one game.
How I use it: I choose the folder C:\Users\SvenGDK\Desktop\FolderOfBackedupGamesForDev\Games
