Default Application Request: Is there a way I can change the exact directory to install cabs?

Please someone tell me there is an application to make this kind of stuff fast and easy. I'd like to change the way my cabs install into the directory.

For example, I got an MP3 Trimmer cab but the shortcut installs into the windows folder. It's annoying, I want to install it into the start menu programs folder.

Download the trial for WinCE Cab Manager 3.X from http://www.ocpsoftware.com/download.php and install it, once installed open and edit the .cab file, change the "default install Dir" paramater and you're good to go. It's a commercial piece of software, but you can run a trial for 30 days without need of registration. see screenie.
