Questions re. saving/reloading with Cartune

A couple of questions about Cartune:

Does the Cartune package copy the status and OBD codes that are stored at the time one creates a .org file?
I'm interested whether one could remove OBD-II diagnostic and fault codes by re-uploading a Tuner file or other saved file with no codes stored?

Also, does the download copy the current state of the adaptive parameters in the ECU code?
I'm wondering whether one could drive the car hard to create an "aggressive" set of adaptive stored data, and then save and reload it later by downloading/reloading the ECU contents to a .org file?

BTW, I've got the v7 Tuner files in my car. With a 15% pulley, it adds nearly as much mid-range torque as the pulley.

No, OBD-II is in a seperate part of the ECU from the fuel maps, DSC controller parameters, and the rest.

No, adaptive memory is stored in volitile memory, not accessable, except maybe by the dealer.
