First of all, pasting the information into a separate directory isn't going to work - the app data has to be in the specific directory that it came out of.
The Google Play Store has a setting that determines if apps automatically install after performing something like a Factory Reset - I think you have to go up to the website to modify that value.
It's too bad that you didn't ask for help before performing the Factory Reset - you should have used something like Helium:
http://market.android.com/details?id=com.koushikdutta.backup to backup both the apps and app data.
Finally, the Kies software is the best way to backup your SMS/MMS (and also allows you to backup your contacts, pictures/videos, call logs and most TouchWiz settings).
