As we know, by default when you install CAB it will get deleted after installation.
Some of cooked ROMs will disable this feature, so CAB will stay after installation. Which is OK for many people.
Here is my question. When I install new program using PC (through ActiveSync) it seems that ActiveSync will transfer CAB file (which is inside .exe) and then - install it as usual. So ... where will be those CAB files located and will they be deleted after installation if delete-cab-after-install feature is disabled ?
During TRANSFER ActiveSync does not ask .... "Do you want your CAB to be transferred to SD card or main memory", right ? It only asks during INSTALLATION of the CAB.
I make lots of installations using ActiveSync and would like to know if I'm not filling my valuable disk space (on phone itself) with junk CAB files.

I think that it stores them in the temp dir...which is deleted after soft reset

Thats why I prefer to extract the cab out of the C:\Programs\Activesync and copy them to SDcard. Pro: you have all needed programs on SDcard and do not have to install throu activesync.

To enable or disable deleting CAB files after installing:
HKCR/cabfile/Shell/Open/Command/
default = \Windows\wceload.exe "%1"
\Windows\wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete

Also if you make the files readonly you don't need to worry about making the registry change to stop them being deleted after installation.

Hi everyone,
Maybe a silly question but i'm a beginner... after installing a cab on WM6 can i remove it to gain some memory ?
Great forum, i'm learning a lot here
add and remove programs in settings

Hi!
I don't think the original question was how to remove the program, but rather if the cab file can be removed (if I'm wrong I apologize, but I interpreted the question different).
Anyway, yes, you can safely remove the cab file from the device after installing it. To remove the installed program use the method described by Rudegar.
It may be wise to store the cab files on the storage card, so you have them available if you have to make a hard reset.

PK
tks for the reply paalkr and yes that was my question. So i can delete or save the cabs on the storage card and will have no problems with my device if i understood well
tks again guys

Hi!
Thats correct! Put the cabs on the storage card. You can then install them from that location also, but I guess you already know that.

Hi everybody? I am trying to find a solution to a issue with sasimi on the new 6.5.X roms (with the start button on the lower bar). The issue is that sashimi cant install cabs to storage card. I searched the web and foud some ideas that u need to hack the sashimi.mrsc file but none of them was working.
Can anybody who succeeded in runing sashimi post his workoround? That would really help me. Thanks ion advance.
Nobody here uses sashimi?
Hello
unpack attached and replace the file in \\SASHIMI\Program\Bin\SASHIMI.mscr
and it will work with Win 6.5.X

Faaaaaaaaaantastic, it works.
Now, is there a way to install cabs to the device as well. I have tried "device" and nothing for the ASL directory, but nothing installs.
I have the Autoinstall facility on my rom but am a bit dubious to have have Autoinstall and Sashimi both working after a re-rom.

you need to install Sashimi program once in you device to storage card
1- if you already install Sashimi.cab you will get SASHIMI folder in storage card
2- copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\
3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
3-copy reg files that you want to install in SASHIMI\Auto\REG\
and so on
after you upgrade your Leo or hardreset it, run Autorun.exe from SASHIMI\Program\2577\
and chose AUTO

I just replaced my SASHIMI.mcsr and it does fix files installed to the device memory but for cabs installed to the storage card, I have to still select storage card and hit 'OK'. Then I have to go to the Home menu and come back to SASHIMI before SASHIMI will carry on with the next cab (in which then I have to repeat the steps for all cabs to be installed to the SC).
Anyone know what could be wrong?
I'm running: Energy.RHODCDMA.23549.Sense2.5_with_Cookie_HomeTab.Mar.20.7z
on a TP2
Me too
It seems that the "SendSpecial ("Down")" is not working and the script may be hanging on the command, or something like that. You don't see the selection change, so it could also be the "SendSpecial("Space")" not working. Either way, the "SendSpecial("LeftSoft")" just after is obviously not firing. Not sure why it's different now, but it apparently is. There used to be a "SendSpecial("CR")" instead of the "SendSpecial("Space")", so I'll try that to see if it's working again (worked in win6.1, not in win6.5). Mine's been working just fine, up till the very latest Energy ROM on my CDMA TP2.

I think it connected to the roms u are using. For me it worked with one rom, then I flashed other rom and I experencied the same thing as you.
sorry to ask, but so far I have no clue about Sashimi but would like to use it and read therefore as much as I could.
Is point 3 a typo?
>3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
shouldn´t it be:
3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in Storage Card to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
Sorry to ask maybe the obvious but for a newbie it is helping to sort out missunderstanding.

You're right there off course
I am having no luck with the v8.0 of Sashimi. I have the Artemis ROM (WinMo v. 6.5.5).
Auto mode only installs cabs from cab/ASL folder. I replaced the Sashimi.mscr with the one posted in this thread but to no avail.
Do you guys have any suggestions?
me too,
sashimi doesnt install (not works) for new artemis v7. It install all my cabs from auto/SC to device becasue it can not move cursore down anymore..
any suggestions?
I also had a problem with cabs not auto installing onto my Storage Card, instead they were installing to My Device. I have been doing some hunting around for the solution and i think i have managed to find it. (its worked for me anyway).
Go to SASHIMI > Program > Bin, BACKUP SASHIMI.mscr and then replace with the one i have attached. I am no coder so please don't ask me about specifics, there were just some hashes added to the beginning of a couple of lines of code. Like i say it worked for me, so hopefully it will work for you Let us know if it works for you. Cheers.
I'm surprised that either of the attachments on this thread works on HD2 Leo. I found that there is a very basic problem with mortscript and all sashimi scripts will hang. Two symptoms:
1) if not in flight mode, sometimes hangs during initialisation
2) if auto install to storage card, will hang (leaving you to select the radio button and press install)
and there is no easy cure.

Hi all
I want to download MS Marketplace. I found a link on Microsoft's webshop. There you can write your Mobile-Phone-Number and they will (hopefully) send you a download-Link.
Unfortunately the link isn't supported for Switzerland-Numbers.
Could someone please post a link or upload the cab?
that would be great! thanks.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4669566&postcount=549
Please use search next time.
thank you.
You might want to think about using marketplace first. The main problem with marketplace is that it only allows you to download and install to the phone's memory, you cannot choose storage memory. Your phone will be out of memory after a few downloads.
hi. thanks.
do you think, it's the same problem with the OpnMarket-(App)?
greetings

OpenMarket allows you to download the App to your Storage card. When you download an App from OM, the cab file is stored in cache file located in storagecard/programs/openmarket/cache. When the cab file installs you have the choice to install to device or storage.
Don't know why MS can't do the same.
hi guys!
can someone with some skills make a link between navi panel and IGO8, or Tom Tom or whatever navi software you like
in fact it would be even better to have the liberty to chose what navi software to be linked with Navi Panel
i would certanly like something like that

Mate it looks like you copy the copilot folder to your Device\Program Files and then edit the config file to contain the path to your chosen nav software.

i don't have igo8 installed on my hd2.
i have it on my sd card and ususaly i make a shortcut to igo8.exe from my sa card in order to run it
if you can make it work, maybe you post here a step by step guide
thanks a lot!
1) Modify the "config.ini" file with a text editor (eg. notepad).
So if you're using TomTom for example the Path looks like this:
Path=Program Files/Navigator/TomTom Navigator.exe
2) Create a directory named "CoPilot" in "\Program Files".
3) Copy the "CoPilot.exe" and your modified "config.ini" files in this directory.
4) Start the NaviPanel and it should work.
If it doesn't work it is maybe you're using a custem ROM and you have to register "alksdk.dll". To do so create the followong registry key :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\NaviSW]
"SDKModule"="\\windows\\alksdk.dll"
I included my .cab which does everything for you, so you only have to change the "config.ini" file if you're not using TomTom. It creates a shortcut for NaviPanel in Programs - GPS, adds an icon I like to NaviPanel, starts TomTom and register the dll.
Good Luck guys hopefully this was helpfull for you.

Awesome thanks for your help.
I am making some progress now. I was unable to even get clickiable icons in the navipanel.
After installing the cab I have clickable icons in the navipanel but when I click them I get a message apperar that says "-2147479552" All I can do is hit OK but it keeps reapperaring.
My tom tom is installed directly to the root of the storage card. When I change the path to point to my exe file all the icons in the navipanel are greyed out again.
What am I missing here?
@ twilight79
@ Piemole
For the case of TomTom just install TomTom on your device and not on the Storage Card.
For iGo8 verify carefully the path to your Storage Card. If you use a different language ROM the name of the Storage Card is not always the same.
Keep in mind that the config.ini file uses "/" and not "\" in the path. (it was like that and I never tried to change).
Keep also in mind that NaviPanel often stays resident, so after changes kill it with a Taskmanager or reboot your device.
If still not working try to Google the HD2 section in the forum. There is some information about iGo8. Copy the .exe and some .dll and the sys.txt out of the root of iGo8 directory and put them in the CoPilot directory, then change your sys.txt for the right paths.
i get that same number error "2455,,,,,,,"
this stuff is driving me insane
cum on robert_mass....create a step by step tuitorial....i just need to know what has to be done in directing navipanel to igo8 exe

Thanks for getting back to me.
I ended up copying the tom tom files (without the maps) to my device storage and it worked.
I have left the maps on my storage card and it still seems to work.
Thanks heaps for the help mate.
@Twilight, I think your problem will be the same as mine. Try making a Navigation folder in program files on yourt device and copy trhe igo8 files there, then change the exe name to TomTom Navigator. I reckon that will fix it (worked for me anyways)
Thanks again Robert

Ok, cool it worked for you!
Normally you install the TomTom .cab on your device (the HD2 has lots of memory) and the maps ofcourse you leave on your SD card (TomTom will find them there without any problem).
