Decrapify vs. manual .dbc files?

I looked into using Copy as Path last night. Still seems like a lot of work, unless I'm missing the point. I might try disabling UAC later. But I'm beginning to wonder if decrapify is really worth all this trouble, lol.
Mainly just looking to rule stuff out. If that would have worked, that would rule out a problem with the .exe files and possibly indicate an OS security or permissions issue.

@GnatGoSplat and Simsample: I disabled UAC and ran the command prompt as Administrator. Drag and drop *still* doesn't work. ::)
Yeah, I've confirmed Drag & Drop into Command Prompt on Vista doesn't work. It works fine on my Windows 7, but my Vista VM can't do it even with UAC off.
Hopefully jfade's tool works for you. I see it works on .sim files which is a big plus. I wasn't able to get decrapify.exe to work on the .sim files in my SavedSims folder, nor did it work on the .package files in my Library folder. I ended up just re-creating those.

I appreciate everybody's suggestions. And for not poking me with sharp sticks, of course. I hope Jfade's tool works, too. If not, I'll just give it a rest -- as bloody hard as that is for me!

I've finished the new Compressorizer, but I'm looking for some feedback. Grab it here:

Note that you'll probably have to set the file types to include .nhd, .sim, etc if you are decrapifying. Lemme know if something's missing.
This doesn't work for me any better than the other way, just wonderfully easier to batch them all together. I still get told I need to update, or it says Installed but it is not. Would it be helpful for someone to look at the file that my decrap makes and compare it to the original?
The file gets smaller and the time stamp does change.
I turned off UAC and run this program as Admin. I am running for sure this time 1.10, 2.5, 3.1. I will post the 2 files if anyone is interested.

You'll have to wait and see if Pescado wants the file, he'd have to debug things. It works flawlessly for me though, aside from like 1 file that I didn't care about anyhow.

Now we're talkin'! I'll try it out when I'm a little less frustrated. Thanks.

May require a reboot after disabling UAC. Also, you cannot drag from one application running with a normal user security to another application running with elevated security. You could test to see if you can drag from one admin window to another admin window.
