ricktendo Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 Open MSI in InstEd (use the InstEd with mod by yumeyao for best compression,) go to Media table, right click on the CAB & choose Rebuild selected CABs. Finally go to Tables -> Sumary info... menu and change the installer Image Type from Admin external to Compressed. Long filenames stellvia12 1 Quote

tangares2000 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 Thanks ricktendo you are the best, one other question plz, after removing vc++ runtime with insted from installer and before creating the cab file, can i remove the win and windows directory? Quote
ricktendo Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 No, only remove the stuff you see in yellow, dont touch anything else You can use InstEd to compare the normal updated installers with the slim updated installers to see what the authors remove (so you can make your own slim) Quote
tangares2000 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 excuse me for my english, it's not what i say, but i want to remove the folders win and windows created with admin deploy that are inside the installer Quote
ricktendo Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 Yes, you can delete those admin directories and keep just the MSI You can delete the CAB (this is embedded in your MSI,) RPT, DDF, INF files also Quote
tangares2000 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 thanks ricktendo for your help :doh: Quote
ricktendo Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Use Data1 instead of setup to preserv the CAB nameWiMakCab.vbs AdbeRdr11000_fr_FR.msi Data1 /C /U /E Quote

ricktendo Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 I figured out the problem that caused the makecab failed error, you have to enable 8.3 filenames on the drive/partition Quote
