Install CAB - PPC2003 VS Mobile 6

[davebythesea]

Hi folks,

To pass an update to our application I create a smart device CAB project,
add the app folder to the Program Files folder, and add the main exe to this
folder then build the CAB.

When this CAB is run on a PPC 2003 device, only the exe in the app folder is
overwritten, which is what I want to do. However, on a Mobile 6 device, when
I run this CAB file, the entire app folder is overwritten, not just the exe.

Is there something I can set to have just the exe overwritten? Has something
changed from PPC2003 to Mobile 6 (and possibly Mobile 5) which handles the
CAB installs differently?

Thanks,
Dav

You can alternatively package your application using a third party
installer such as the one generated by Mobile Packager (http://
