Add option to relock save #101

I unlocked the profile file for The Sims 3 to copy it to a flashdrive through the XMB and now all of the challenges are reset, the game will not save challenge progress and tutorials keep popping up on screen after I have used the "don't show this again" button, if an option was added to lock saves the backup can be copied back to the hard drive and relocked and doing that might fix the problem, TS3 is the only game I have that does this but there may be others I don't play which do the same thing if the save data is not copy protected.

if you have the original locked save, you can copy the PARAM.SFO file manually, overwriting the one on the unlocked save. That should "re-lock" it.

Also with Apollo you can copy to USB the original locked save, no need to unlock it at all. Then use Apollo again to copy it back to HDD, even if it's locked.
