Two points:
1) Yes, using the copy of the Launcher (plus the supporting files) from your retail disc will work fine, but;
2) You can just make a desktop shorcut to the configuration utility. It's in your DAO "\bin_ship" folder under "\Program Files", (the same folder where the main game executable "daorigins.exe" is.) It's called: "DAOriginsConfig.exe".
The Launcher simply gave a way to choose the game program, the config program, or the other support programs that no longer work (since they were on-line, and EA dropped/moved things.)
