Questions about SettingsSavior

I have a few questions about the program....so here goes...

I have a theme called cylic_blackbars.tsk in the My documents folder which apparently is not being restored..the file is being copied because the my documents folder is checked but the new system no longer uses it by default. I also have a picture I am using as background that is currently stored in My documents..same problem.

I have a file called voicemail.mp3 which is in the \windows directory. Incoming voicemails are set to call this file. The entries to point to voicemail.mp3 are copied but the physical file is not...should it be in My documents and will it show up to be selected as a sound from there?

I have a wizard_retouched_dialer_skin.zip skin that I want to extract to \windows after the wizard_retouched_dialer.cab is installed...this just overwrites existing files. Is there a way to make this happen?

Lastly I wanted to ask about application settings. I am unsure of the steps to "pull out" the registry settings for some of my apps and am hoping someone can give me some instructions with links to needed software if possible.

I am installing by automatic a tmobile customization cab for the gprs settings..by default the user/pass is empty and the user/pass I'm entering is not being restored...tmobile doesn't care what the user/pass is but it needs to be something OTHER than spaces. Can this be made to happen?

I have the following apps who's registry I would like to save so I can easily reinstall it. I'm beta testing a rom and having to manually reinstall these apps several times..even using setting savior for all it can do this process is tedious because some of these apps like Imov messenger and octrotalk have alot of user/password information.

Oggsync from oggsync.com (freeware google calendar to outlook sync)..user/password

Octrotalk from octrotalk.com (aim, icq, msn, yahoo and google chat user/pass settings such as show online buddies only)

Imov messenger from movsoftware.com (aim, icq, msn, yahoo and google chat user/pass)

Mortplayer from http://www.sto-helit.de/ (Skin used, playlist used, play mode (shuffle) )

Kotetu Happy Tapping Keyboard is an iphone like keyboard which has a thread on this board..I auto install it's cab file and the Input Method selector cab file it provides..you run IM selector and tell it to use the Happy Tapping Keyboard and from then on it's auto selected at bootup by a shortcut running out of the windows\startup folder. Can this setting be retained because I'm having to reconfigure it again. (default input method)

Finally...I upx alot of software on my storage card to save space...if you have never heard of upx it's a file compressor where the files auto extract at execution time..usually you break even on speed because the smaller size is loaded faster so the expansion in memory doesn't cost you much...I have upx'd several of the apps on the storage card...I can create a zip of the folders I know I have compressed..is there a way to setup settings savior to auto extract the .zip to the Storage_card\Program Files folder after all cabs have been installed?

(I guess bottom line I'm asking for an option to provide a zip and a destination directory to settings savior and have it apply it as the last thing it does before the final soft reset..that would take care of the dialer skin and the upx'd apps and the voicemail.mp3 file)

Is there a way to auto apply .reg files?

Lastly Settings Savior is leaving a shortcut pointing to itself in windows\startup so it can restart once all the cabs are installed and soft reset is done...this gets an error on my phone (probably cause the storage card was not ready) so I run the settings savior manually and it completes the cabs and applies the settings but it is leaving the shortcut in \windows\startup when it finishes and that has to be manually deleted.

I read 2 threads and surfed google trying to figure out how to build a cab for settings savior..please consider providing one!

Thank you for your time and for the work you have done on this program!
