Then he (auto-)mounts his games directory and changes to the PARATIME directory (two levels lower) to execute the START.BAT. The PARADOX.EXE in the TEMPPARA directory looks for the PARATIME.INF at C:\ which is his games directory, but the file is one/two directories lower.

I have changed the PARADOX.EXE so that it looks for the PARATIME.INF one directory higher from its own directory. Now it doesn't matter how high you mount, the PARATIME.INF will always be found from a lower level than it is.

Please excuse the elaborate explanation. I wanted to make it understandable for all readers (what it probably isn't ). Your efforts with the archive are appreciated. There is just a more universal solution.
Ah ok. I should've thought of changing the line in the inf file.
