Installing CAB files

Copy any CAB files you want to install into the AutoStart CAB folder. These CAB files
will then be automatically installed in alphabetical order the next time you start the
device.

How AutoStart Uses Wceload

CAB files are installed by AutoStart using the

Wceload.exe

application. Table 3-4 on

page

3-13

shows available command line options:

Please refer to the Microsoft documentation on your device for further details on

Wce-

load.exe

.

Sample:

\Windows\Wceload.exe /delete 1 /noui /silent “\Flash-

Disk\CAB\<cab file>”

Interactive CAB Install

If the CAB installer requires user interaction that must be performed during the
AutoStart CAB installation process, you can specify a special file name to disable the
silent mode installation. If this mode is specified, the CAB file will be installed with

Wceload

without any command line arguments specified.

An example of what AutoStart would execute is:

\Windows\Wceload.exe <cab file>

To force this mode of installation via AutoStart, rename the CAB file to include a ‘

_

character before the “

.cab

” extension of the file.
