Troubleshooting the CAB Wizard

To identify and avoid problems that might occur when using the CAB
Wizard, follow these guidelines:

S Use %% for a percent sign (%) character when using this character in

an .INF file string, as specified in Win32 documentation. This will not
work under the [Strings] section.

S Do not use .INF or .CAB files created for Windows CE to install ap-

plications on Windows-based desktop platforms.

S Ensure the MAKECAB.EXE and CABWIZ.DDF files, included with

Windows CE, are in the same directory as CABWIZ.EXE.

S Use the full path to call CABWIZ.EXE.

S Do not create a .CAB file with the MAKECAB.EXE file included with

Windows CE. You must use CABWIZ.EXE, which uses
MAKECAB.EXE to generate the .CAB files for Windows CE.

S Do not set the read-only attribute for .CAB files.
