KYRA: KYRA1 (German) wrongly detected as English demo

Description
System: Windows 11
ScummVM: 2026.1.0
Game Version: German CD
This here is an annoyance. In previos versions of Scumm VM, my version of Kyrandia 1 was correctly detect as the German CD version (German text, English voices). However, with the new version, it falsely detects as an English demo, which of course causes issues.
My original is from the German release of the compilation "Westwood 10th Anniversary", and I even added the Kyra.dat to see if that was missing, but it didn't change anything.

I noticed because I did have 2.9.1. and the game was detected fine and also worked as intended. I then had to set up my computer again then and also installed the new ScummVM then. That's when the problems started.
Edit: I have to add that the structure how the game is stored on the disk is a little weird (two folders with seemingly the same content. I tried both folders with the same result).
Could you please confirm that in version 2.9.1 the detection worked properly?
