Writing Pre-Set registry & files settings Question

Ok. I have this all about working know. But still having a little problems. Got a few apps that I need the presetting to write/over right the files & to registry before launch of app and then backup after launch and written to the "data" folder.

I have the need files pre-set files & the portableapp.reg key in "app\defaultdata" folder. I need that information to be place back in reg and the files to be placed in a specific location and read on launching app.

What do I need to add to the launcher ini to do this?

Thanks

why?

Game Booster Portable is already available here (which happens to be made by me)

I'm planning on posting an update Sunday (then you can see what the final project is).
