CAB file install on Windows CE 5.0

L

lightreader

Hi,
I am trying to install a couple of apps which are packaged as CAB
files. When I double click on any CAB file I get the following error:

No .CAB files to install: Please specify a .cab file or double tap a
cab file to install the application.

The same CAB files works fine on the CE 5.0 emulator or on other Pocket
Pcs

What am i missing on the CE 5.0 device?

TIA,
LR

Sounds like wceload's registry entry is incorrect on the device and
ShellExecute is failing. My guess is that you're trying to run the CAB from
a location with a space in the path (like My Documents or Storage Card). If
you copy it to the root folder of the devie and run it does it work?
