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 MAKE-
CAB.EXE to generate the .CAB files for Windows CE.
S Do not set the read-only attribute for .CAB files.
