I wouldn't dream of forcing you to use one of my tips 
If you are open minded and feel like trying to learn different/new approach then you will follow/try my tips and then see if you agree/disagree to this tip/approach
I "think"
that if you will try working this way your divice will work faster then you have ever seen enter window dir or boot from SR very fast, you will have a lot of rom&ram available for running more then one big app
The HR installation works on apps that you don’t have/need a today plugin
(apps that can be installed to the card)
1 backup your device - this way if you file like going back, you can restore to your current sate
2 hr your device
3 if you use a launcher ,install your today launcher the old traditional way (exe/cab)
4 go with your file explorer to your sd/program files and enter every dir you see
Tap on the exe with the icon of the app to activate.
you may need to approve the reinstallation of some files (say yes to every thing)
5 create shortcut to every EXE like I explained previously
6 configure your launcher like you are used to
Test the performance of your device now (look at available ram/rom speed …..)
Thank me later
*** on some apps will need to reregister (like it is the first time you install them )
most launcher will let you add files to your desktop (not only listed ink* from program screen)
you can use this function to add the shortcut
(now the launcher shortcut will be to the main EXE of every program you have installed on your card)
this way you don’t need to create shortcuts to program screen
if you have resco-explorer (that can work with hr installation) you can create the shortcuts by tap&hold on the main EXE then select send to/start menu as shortcut****:approve::cheers:
now back to what you pointed out :)

Pocket Mechanic\ Relocate does all these things for you.

ilauncher will address the "name of the app" you referred to and not to the content of the ink*
what I'm saying is that as long as you keep the same "ink" name, you can use a shortcut (ink) from any location on the device
to cut things short ,after you "paste as a shortcut to XXX" rename the ink to just XXX (XXX- the orig name of the app) and it will function with your launcher (on magical "mechanic tricks" are needed )
if you use resco explorer it will be done automatically
if you are locked on your way of thinking it is ok, every one has there way of doing things :approve:
from my point of view mechanic is doing things 4you that "you wouldn't dream of doing" like copy/paste as shortcut and now "rename"
just having a laugh, hope all in good spirit :)
Keep-it/throw-it ,it is 4 you to decide, if you give it a chance…. Anyway good luck with what ever you use/chose:)
btw - way don't you insatll to the card in the first place
if you do testing of functionalty/speed/like to try ... just tap on the app cab and it will remove&reinsall the way you like it
good luck :)
