Auto install of SP3 dotnetCF "Confirm File Replace" malice.

Guest

Hi,

After cold-booting our Mobile 2002 devices (no CF present), we run a program
to auto install the netcf.core.ppc3.ARM.cab (SP3 version of the Compact
Framework), install our applications' cab file and finally run it.

Now we've upgraded the devices to Mobile 2003 (on Intermec C700 Pocket PCs),
but since dotnet CF is already installed (i believe it is SP1 but that's not
important), a request appears: "The file "\Windows\mscoree.dll" is
hidden,read-only or as system file. Do you wish to replace it? (this request
appears for 4 files: mscoree.dll/mscoree1_0.dll/cgacutil.ex and
netcfqgl1_0.dll)

Is there a way to disable this behaviour so that it automatically overwrites
these files, without any dialogues?
I have tried adjusting some flags of the mentioned files in the dotcf .cab
file with the 3rd party app WinCE Cabmanager, but didn't succeed in loosing
the requests.

The PDA vendor told me that MS should have a custom .cab file that does
this, is this correct?

Regards,

Davy Bonnevalle
