Some words for the manifest.u3i:
If your app doesn't store anything inside %USERPROFILE% or such, then just call it directly
inside the <appStart> - such as:
<appStart workingdir="%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%" cmd="%U3_HOST_EXEC_PATH%\WebMon.exe">-prefs "%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%\WebMon.ini" -pages "%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%\pages\WebPages.dat"</appStart>
BUT: If you app DOES store some stuff inside %USERPROFILE% (mostly noticeable if there appears something under
C:\Documents and Settings\<Username>\Application Data\<somewhat>\<something>), call it as follows:
<appStart workingdir="%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%" cmd="%U3_HOST_EXEC_PATH%\U3Helper.exe">appstart</appStart>
This way, the environment variables %USERPROFILE% and a bunch of other related will be set to point to the
data directory on the U3-stick and therefore those app will store its data there instead of on the host system.
Take a look at the U3Helperex.ini as there are all supported settings mentioned. You'll get the idea of the expected
format.
