Is it safe to rename the emulator .EXE?

I'm setting up a front end. I will have 100s of games when I'm done, all pointing to the emulator app that will run them. If the time ever comes I decided to keep the games as-is but simply change the emulator that runs them, I DONT want to have to go back and relink each ROM to the next emulator individualy.

I was thinking of just using a generic path name like C\Nintendo\emulator.exce for example.

So here is my question:

Are most emulator files dependent on the .EXE being a certain file name? Would renaming the .EXE break the emulator in some way so it won't function properly, if at all?

Renaming the exe will not cause any issues at all.
