CopyFiles

The Copyfiles key, under the [DefaultInstall] section, is required and describes the default files to copy to the target device.

[destination_filename,[source_filename],[,flags]]

destination_filename
This specifies the destination filename.
source_filename
This is optional if it is identical to destination_filename.
flags

The following table shows the values that are supported by Windows CE.
