On certain games I have stored some saved games file that i would like to be able to overwrite or move to their respective folders. can this be done by creating something something like winzip that will extract into their folders and overwrite if need be (silently of course).

same situation with programs i would imaging for instance if i have a license file i need to place in a certain location.



Edit: Imagine the string would be placed in Command 2 in the config.js?

I use WinRAR to copy files over.

Just make an SFX file pointing to the desired location and make sure you have overwrite files checked.

Plus you get the added benefit of compression.
