FileCopy(ExpandConstant('{app}\openingmovie.bk2'), ExpandConstant('{app}\openingmovie_hi.bk2'), False);

Boolean is always 'True' or 'False'.

You can also use something like this

[ Code]
var
ResultCode: Integer;

ShellExec('open', 'cmd.exe', '/c copy /Y "' + ExpandConstant('{app}\openingmovie.bk2') + '" "' + ExpandConstant('{app}\openingmovie_hi.bk2') + '"', '', SW_Hide, ewWaitUntilTerminated, ResultCode);
In this example inno setup use cmd.exe from windows os and use it to copy a file with parameters /c /y


You have to use one of the the above codes somewhere after install procedure (at the time when the game is installed, like on finish page).
