A small tool I made while creating my ROM. I don't know if this will help you in any way guys but it's my share for this community and a big thank you for helping me.

So here's DropToWin
Which copies files and folders to \Windows directory. I think it's a good tool if you're trying to make some changes in your WM.

This is how it looks like in my Explorer

Features:
  • Restart Sense/Manila
  • Stop Sense
  • Start Sense
  • Soft Reset
  • Copy Files and Folders without the nag of question to overwrite files/folders.
  • Can accept parameters - thanks to @ai6908 for his thoughts about this
  • Import Registry - future. May require (dotfred) FDC Task Manager

Installation
Please install it in your Device! Not in Storage Card.

Sorry but there are some limitation in Visual Studio - Smart Device CAB.
So I had to make a workaround.

good job, p're. will try it. i'm particularly interested in stop/start sense without going though the hassle.

p.s. just installed it in storage card, not on device, did a soft reset but cannot launch restart/stop sense. error says: file 'drop to win' cannot be opened, either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found.

forgot to tell, you have to install it in your device. the shortcuts was looking for DropToWin.exe in \Program Files\Gambit Mobile Tools\DropToWin.

Sorry but there are some limitation in Visual Studio - Smart Device CAB.
