Well, it came down to writing a .bat that is flawless and puts everything where it needs to go... all 50 files in all 50 directories, but... it only works for some of them because evidently it must need elevated privileges that the SFX Advanced tab doesn't take into account? The only time this thing will work 100% is to manually extract the files out of the archive and run the .bat. Running the installer doesn't successfully copy all the needed files where they need to go. I tested the code in command prompt and had all successful copies, then ran the .bat and it installed everything fine. Executing the installed with the .bat as the run after extraction, does NOT work for some of the files. Ran the app as admin as well...
