The files aren't the hard part.
It's the registry files that you will the trouble. I don't know how to replicate that. As I don't think that kind of manual install will make Origin recognize it for any kind of repair if the repair itself wouldn't trigger the patch.
Might be the point where you would need to go back to the disc version should you really not want to tie to Origin. Assuming you can still find/make a computer with Windows 7 at that time. So if you do not own the discs, might want to start looking for them to add to your collection.
Short of the hard drive, motherboard, or processor going bad, you'd only have to worry about finding hardware old enough that still has Windows 7 drivers.
Those three would likely require an OS reinstall or make just buying a new computer more efficient.
