How would you change this bat to perform the Dpr mod ?

I don't know what it is that PokerStars is detecting that prompts it to update and revert back to the original theme. Annoying as hell. To circumvent, I created a .bat file to copy the theme and cards directory and replace it with DpR's theme following any update. Most likely it's overkill, but it works for me.

You MUST follow the steps in this order:
1) Run PokerStars and make sure the theme named Stars is already installed
2) Change to a different theme (i.e. PokerStars Default Theme)
3) With PokerStars still running, copy the folder "Gx\chips&deck\deck\simple" into "Gx\chips&deck\deck\" and rename the folder "simpleold"
4) Copy the folder "C:\Program Files\Pokerstars\Themes\stars" into "C:\Program Files\Pokerstars\Themes\" and rename the folder "original"
5) Unpack DpR's file into C:\Program Files\Pokerstars\ and replace any files.
4) Change to the Stars theme and make any necessary changes (cards, background, etc...) See my earlier post.
5) Close Pokerstars once everything looks the way you want it.
6) Only then can you start PStars using this .bat file

I'm no programmer, I'm just a noob trying to make this as easy as possible for other noobs. Someone volunteer as the guinea pig and post if it works. If it ends up destroying your computer, eating your children and violating your cat... sorry!
