Hello,

I was wondering if there was any way to modify an existing CAB so that at beginning of installation it prompt you for destination (internal or storage card)

I have installed many cabs with this choice at the beginning but some others don't have it and it is important to me to save space...

Is it something to add in XML file?

Thanks

I think using WinCE Cab manager you can alter this.

I have downloaded WINCE CAB Manager but don't know where to set this up?

Could anyone advise? or any other solution?

This is quite useful for all of us Ii suppose as it can save space on our internal memory (and we all know we dont have much :-)

Once you have installed WinCE cab manager (on a PC), open the cab file with it.

For each of the files within the cab, you'll need to change the install location. Right click on each file, and select the relevant option.

Make sure that you keep the relative path the same! (perhaps just add "\Storage Card" to the front of each path.
