All right! Well done.

I'll give this a try and report back.

*Edit

Shouldn't the .inf entry be changed for x64?

[SourceDisksNames.x86]
1="Cab Files","CabMaker2.ex_",,"I386"

And to install in a running system, just right-click .inf and select "Install"...right?

well snake reported to me that the file didn't get copied

so i told him to manually extract the file (open it with winrar or 7zip)

and copy it to syswow64 and it worked fine after that

so if the x64 soultion worked tell me and i will upload a fixed one

[Guest]

ok i read all about 64 bit inf now

but it's ready now

uploaded another version for 64 bit

it should be 100% compatible now

test and tell me

Nice work Dark.

Love this tool and the other tools you have made.

Keep it up.

[ricktendo]

If you use this you dont need to use SourceDisksNames.x86 at all in your .INF (if you are compressing the file in i386) all you need to do is add is LayoutFile and SourceDisksFiles with =1 (if they are in i386 or amd64 dir)

[Version]
signature="$Windows NT$"
LayoutFile=layout.inf

[SourceDisksFiles]
nameoffile.ext=1

It will use layout.inf to find what 1 equals, in this case it will look in layout.inf and find that

[SourceDisksNames.x86]
1  = %cdname%,%cdtagfilei%,,\i386

or for the x64

[SourceDisksNames.amd64]
1  = %cdname%,%cdtagfilem%,,\amd64

hmm that a nice idea

but i don't think layout.inf exist in Win 7

but i can use both [sourceDisksNames.amd64] , [sourceDisksNames.x86] and [sourceDisksNames.ia64]

in the inf and it can detect the os by it self (that another workaround i have found)

and also in 32 bit the 16425 means system32

i can make the addon working for both 32 and 64 bit

using both ways it should work

and now i was checking some files

founded that

ntprint.inf does the same as the layout.inf and it's in both xp and 7

thx for your advice ricks

i might do the one addon for both addons soon

Well, I don't know. But it didn't work.

I put CabMaker3.ex_ inside AMD64 folder then right-click .inf select "Install". The file copied to syswow64 OK, but there's no option in "Send to" menu for all users, only the Administrator.

In order to work for all users, the shortcut needs to be placed in the "Default" user folder:

C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo\

Using the string %appdata% will only select the current user, not default.

well i know but when you integrate this addon with a windows cd

and it starts to install shortcuts and there isn't a current user it will make the shortcut in the default

so it will work as all users

but sadly i didn't find a direct path number to it

(and win 7 is not like win xp in the user )

but i will go and do some search if i can find any

Edit: well i searched but sadly no direct link to it

but i will do more tests
