Hi,

Every releases of hfslip I tried allways led to the same issue. When the support.cab file gets rebuilt by hfslip, We cannot install the application anymore, the os complains about missing files but the files are in fact there. I think the decompression library embedded in the .exe is too old tu successfuly extract the .cab file.

That's strange, because HFSLIP doesn't alter or even touches SUPPORT.CAB from Windows XP. Are you using my plugin for the Windows XP SP2 Support Tools update?

As far as Windows 2000 is concerned, I have just finished a similar HFSLIP plugin for the Windows 2000 SP4 Support Tools update and will post it later.

For the Windows 2000 SP4 Support Tools:

The plugin for the handling of the Windows 2000 SP4 Support Tools can be downloaded here.

1) Extract HFSLIP_PRE_2KSP4-SupportTools.cmd into the HFTOOLS folder.
2) Create a new folder named _EXTERNAL in the main HFSLIP folder.
3) Place sp4supporttools.exe in _EXTERNAL.
4) Run HFSLIP as usual.

Note that this plugin is only compatible with HFSLIP 1.7.1rc4 or newer.

Ok, I just followed your instructions by the letter and it still doesn't work in win2k, I can't install the support tools. The error I'm getting is: Error 1334, the file 'kill.exe' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'support.cab'. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package.

Any other ideas ?

Thanks in advance
