Ok hopefully this can be done with [MoveFiles} I am using PA Launcher 2 beta 3

Here is situation:

I have a file called jajuk.bootstrap in the %USERPROFILE% directory. I have made a copy and placed it into the %PAL:AppData% directory. I would like to remove the original from the %USERPROFILE% and have it upon the start of the program write the AppData file to UserProfile folder. Then when program shuts down return it to the AppData folder.

I have tried ever combo I know of to accomplish this but can not do it Sad

Sporadic Internet Access [Scribus Portable updates]

Notice to fellow developers: I am unfortunately going to have very sporadic internet access for the next 3 months, up to possibly 1 year. Accordingly, if I am unable to update Scribus Portable in a relatively timely manner (say, 1 week following a release), if someone else would be so kind as to do so for me, I would appreciate it. If someone lets me know ahead of time if they'd be willing, I should be able to give them access to the sourceforge project.

Thanks guys!

The latest, stable, "normal" version of Eraser, after some fixes to version 6.0.6 is version 6.0.7 released today. Also, on the Eraser web site (eraser.heidi.ie), Joel (one of the developers) has said that the "5" versions are no longer actively developed and supported.

I am working on 2 programs. One is almost done, and the other one is in several pieces. The outlook one copies the data from the "LocalAppData" outlook directory to the drive. and can transfer it back to the PC. I am currently working on getting it to run on XP, and with other versions of office.
