Firstly, I am NOT GOING TO PIRATE ANY SOFTWARE.

Now -
I get the fullversion softwares from www.giveawayoftheday.com and after I activate them, I install and keep them in zipped files so that I can use them later in their full version state.Some programs work but not all, therefore I just wanted to know any program which makes a copy of the software in its FULL VERSION STATE...

Programs from Giveawayoftheday.com work only when you activate during that one day which it was free. After that you can't activate it. And if you format your drive, softwares from Giveawayoftheday.com become useless.

And there is no such software which makes a copy of software in full version state.

I dont understand what u mean by full version state.

When u activate them u can make a hdd clone using ghost image or true image that way if u format the hdd u can restore ur image as it was on old working state.
