How to move folders to windows\temp wihthout using $oem$, pl

[wing_bbs]

I have severial folders should be moved to windows\temp during the installation process, but i don't want to use $oem$ to move them. (it is not cool enough!)

I want to integrate them into the I386 folder and copy them through modifiying TXTSETUP.SIF or somthing like .inf files.

Is there anyone have ideas for this?

Note: I want to move the whole folder to a destination, not a single file.

create an SFX file that extracts them to whatever location you want and then put the sfx in SVCPACK

Actually, wing_bbs, I suggest you read about HFSLIP's HFEXPERT feature. In your case, you would copy your files to HFEXPERT\WIN\TEMP (after creating these folders manually in your HFSLIP directory). HFSLIP will add the necessary entries to TXTSETUP.SIF and DOSNET.INF automatically, but make sure you don't use names that coincide with existing files.

The HFEXPERT folder may still not be what you're after. Those files are copied into the intended location during txtmode copy, but Windows setup purges the temp folder at the end.

Also, if I remember well, at one point I have tried a few times to copy files into the temp folder and later access these at T-13, which failed. This may indicate that the temp folder is purged more than once.

But you can always try...
