Well, I think it's a bug. Files are listed in the Mission Editor, Open Mission, except when that particular map to the mission is not installed. 

Yesterday I downloaded a .miz file from this site, so I could try and help someone. I put the file into my \Missions folder and opened the ME to look at it, but the file was not listed. I spent quite some time on this issue trying to figure out the problem. Unfortunately, my 7-Zip didn't have the correct .exe association - it was using 7-Zip Console, instead of 7-Zip File Manager, so that compounded my troubles - 7-Zip couldn't open any .miz file.

In DCS, I could make a new mission and do a Save As and then I would see the 'missing' .miz file. I finally typed in the 'filename'.miz to open it and only then did I get this dialog message that I did not have the Iraq Map installed, see pic.

My point is that all .miz files should be displayed in the ME Open Mission file picker, even if the map isn't installed. Please fix!
