About mods or "Wrong NFS version or the game has crashed"

How to run a second clean (non-modded) copy of Shift on a PC for use with WRClient and keep the game saves separate from the original modded copy:

Open a new user account in Windows.

While in the new user account, create a desktop shortcut to the shift.exe of the second copy of Shift. Also, create a shortcut to WRClient.

Run the WRClient, then launch Shift.

The game profile saves will now go to the dir "C:\Documents and Settings\YourNewUserAcctName\My Documents\NFS SHIFT".

Note: the path example is for Win XP/SP3. Vista and 7 are similar.
