The files themselves are not an executable copy of the Compact Framework.
They have to be installed. When you build the .NET CF into the device OS,
that puts the right entries into the registry and puts the framework files in
the right location. Given what you have, it sounds like the best you can do
is have the CAB file installed automatically as part of the copy process. If
you can have the copy program open the CAB file, that would do it. If you
can have it run a program, you could write a native code application to
launch wceload.exe with the .NET CF CAB file as the parameter. There's no
way to make a simple copy of some files equal the installation of .NET CF.
