CAB file to change File Locations?

[gregma]

I apologize if this is the wrong location for this question. Please move if it is.

I am looking to see if anyone has yet created a CAB file that would modify the File Locations as detailed in the WM5_Tweaks_Other (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other) Wiki.

I'm interested in the following tweaks:

Change the location of My Documents
Change the location of email and attachments
Change the location of temporary internet files

The reason I'm asking for a CAB file is so that I can change these automatically when I burn a new ROM without having to install a registry editor each time and make all those registry changes. It's getting old to have to modify those each and every time.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

As it is only changing keys in the registry, it can be done with a cabfile.

The trial of WinCE CAB Manager (http://www.ocpsoftware.com/products.php?nm=cecabmgr) can do that.

Dude use Schaps_AdvancedConfig, It has those options plus MANY more. ;)

Actually it doesn't seem to have all of those. I tried 2.02.1.0. It allows you to change the location of the IE cache and temporary files, but it does not allow you to change "My documents", and it does not allow you to change the location of email and attachments. At least not that I can find.
Maybe I'm blind and not seeing those though. Can you point them out for me please?

Thanks!

Advanced Config, 1 or 2, is a wonderful tool, but if you make a cab file that takes care of your own preferences all in one go, including ones Adv Config doesn't cover (it can't cover everything) thenit's a good idea.

I did the same thing with an xml file rather than a cab a while ago. All I actually did was edit the pre-existing orange xml file that set up my network connections.

Might be easier than creating a cab as requires no tools but Notepad.

write all the registry tweaks into one single text file, save it as <whatever>.reg and install dotfred's task manager (which is a single exe-file).
this taskmanager can easily imoprt reg-files.

if you need a template for the reg-file's syntax use dotfred's task manager to export the required reg-keys...

I have decided to go with the CAB file. It was a BREEZE! And the resulting CAB file is less than 3k, and take just a second to install. In case anyone is interested in it, I am attaching it here. Feel free to request anything in addition as I can add registry entries very easily.

All this small CAB does is set "My Documents" to be on your storage card, and set email and email attachments to your storage card. 3 registry keys added. Nothing more.

Enjoy.
