Don't delete the cabs

[ROCOAFZ]

This is bugging the heck out of me.

On my WM 6.1 roms this fix is implemented but i have yet to see it in the smartphones. Is there a way?

I would like to keep an install cabs directory on my wife's micro sd but i can't seem to find a way to stop it from deleting the cabs after i install them.

(I may just not be wording my searching correctly but any help would be appreciated)

Mine stay put after install. Check your registry key named nDynamicDelete @ HKLM\Software\apps\Microsoft Application Installer\

Mine has a value of 2. You can also use CabInstl instead and have the option to select where to install and when to delete or not.

Thanks... I'll check tonight on her phone. Mine also do with WM6.1 PRO on my wizard, but hers do not with gnatgosplat's star trek wm6.1 rom.

Let us know how that goes but also you can change

HKCR\cabfiles\shell\Open\Command\(default) = \Windows\wceload.exe "%1"
TO
HKCR\cabfiles\shell\Open\Command\(default) = \Windows\wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete

Thanks!

Just make your cabs "read only" and then they won't get deleted. No registry edit required.
