Do I only need to type in people who act after me? Does the EV change because people have folded before me? Why or why not?

First thing to note is that you can read in from a hand history file from Party or Stars; this can save a lot of time.

If you are entering hands from 2+2 or some other source, then yes, you have to put in everyone's chip count.

Say you're on the bubble, have the button, and UTG folds with blinds 100/200. You with 1500 chips have the decision to push into SB and BB who have you covered. Do you think it matters if the guy UTG who already folded has 5 chips or 5000? You bet it does. It matters a lot. If he has 5 chips you're almost guaranteed the money by just folding, if he has 5000 you need to pick up chips to make the money. SnG Power Tools accounts for this effect, so it needs to know who has how many chips.
