FilesMove Problem

hi guys. I'm trying to get filesmove to work but. I just can't figure it out.
I need to move the file "burnaware.ini" from C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Roaming (yes the ini is lose in the roaming folder), to the Portable app "data" folder. If anyone can help that would be great.

I have this in my ini file.

[FilesMove]
%APPDATA%\burnaware.ini=%PAL:DataDir%\settings

Wrong order

And it is relative to the data dir, so it should be:
settings\burnaware.ini=%APPDATA%

Edit for clarification: You are thinking of it as if you need to move a file from the PC to the portable install. However, it is the other way round: when you run a portable app the file is copied from the app's data directory to the local PC.

Read the docs

The documentation is quite clear on the syntax. It's there to be read.
