hi,
I tried to search about my issue , but no use at all.
at first of all i would like to mention that I`m a newbie (very newbie) so please try to help me with my problem.
my problem is that when i unzip any .cab file , i got the setup file in it as XML document , and when i transfer it to my storage card , it`s turn (the setup file) to a web page , so when i click it to setup the program , an opera page opened immediately with a browser address ( file:// localhost/storage%20card/core%20player/_SETUP.XML) in other programs it might be _setup.cab.xml at the end.
so can any one help me what to do to solve this problem , and can install a program in my mobi windows.
thanx in advance.
YOU install the .cab file ,don't extract the contents of it!

hi dident work for me either any sugestions
I cannot seem to be able to load that file. I can only Explore on my 8125. I can extract the .cab file to my desktop and I can copy the unextracted .cab file to the 8125 (or the extracted files) but I cannot install the program.
Any suggestions?
Copy the .cab file to your device and run it there. I don't think you need to extract it first before copying it over.
Better still here is an explanation of what you would be doing and why.

Im pretty new here and just got my BA not tooo long ago...I used to be a trreo user now im hooked on my BA.
I see alot of software that comes in a form of a cab file...does anyone know how I can load that software on my BA? thanks alot!
hey mate and welcome!
if you put the cab file in your pc folder; you'll see that the description is "zip file"....that's because it's the only format microsoft recognizes...in a way its also true as the cab file is a compiled program ready for installation. what you do is DON'T unzip the file in your pc; rather cut/copy and paste it directly in your ba (via activesync or in your sd card). put it in a folder that's easy to find; say "my documents...personal" (or you can make your own folder to put in cab files). use your ba's file explorer and go to the folder...from there double click (via stylus) on the cab file and it will automatically install itself. btw, if you copied the cab file in your sd card you can also execute the installation there....no need to paste it in your my documents area.
if you're using wm2005; upon execution the unit will ask you if you want to install it in the sd card or internal memory....that's really up to you depending on the size of the file you're installing.
hope that helps

thanks alot Robson.
Ive always looked past cab file programs b/c i couldnt install it. I hope this thread helps other newbies too. I searched and couldnt find an answer.
is there anyway that can install cab files direct from pc to ppc?
sorry for the late response; was in china for a week.
unfortunately, no. i don't think there's a way to install cab files via pc. if you do unzip a cab file; you'll notice that the files are something like:
0000124
009890
or something like that....can be as many as 20 lines of code...but scanning through the entire zip will not give you any .exe files which can be executed via pc. if you have a card reader installed on your laptop, simply copy and paste the cab file on your sd and from there install via your ppc
hope that helps

hell everyone I'm new to the forum I've been Reading around the forum lately and its very informative however i ran into a bit of a jam I'm the owner of a t-mobile WING and over the weekend i install theOMAPCLOCK and now I'm getting a message on my screen (cannot execute \windows\startup\omapclock.ink) I've tried to uninstall it but i keep coming up i don't know what I'm doing wrong r what i need to do

i did delete the omap file but the massage still comes up where can i find it on the phone i've tried looking everywhere do i need some type of reg edit to perform this
\windows\startup
is the dir where shortcuts to programs which are ment to auto start
are placed even if the exe the shortcut is pointing at is gon
the shortcut is still there
and if the shortcut is pointing at something which is not there

total commander is both a good filemanager to delete files from places like
\windows\startup
and to alter the registry too

connect your phone to activesync then open the windows folder and then open the startup folder. Right click on omapclock.lnk and select delete and your problems solved.
i guess i'm not lookin in the right place r not but i cant seem to find the windows folder that u guys r talkin about i connect the phone to my computer and use activesync open the file management and browes there is only 2 item storage and i guess the internal storage on the phone and search them all and find no windows folder
PLEASE HELP ME
\ is root

like
windows
my documents
Storage card - if you have an sd card
if you want total commander using google searching for total commander pocketpc will surely pay off

ok i have a excalibur and i have wm6 on it and im trying install apps on it it is unlocked but i have no clue what a cab file is or how to install it or how to run it is there anyone that can help me??? [email protected] THANK YOU
Generally, you install the cab file to your PC desktop, hook up your phone to your PC via Activesync, and after the sync operation, click the "Explore" icon in Activesync to open the folder with the contents of your phone, drag the cab file icon from your desktop into the new folder you've opened and it's on your phone. Then click on that program file in "File Explorer" on your phone and it will install onto your phone.
Generally, one posts with a topic that is useful and gives a summary of the problem, not "HELP ME!!"
Thanks
