Create CAB file from folder

Create CAB files based on the contents of a folder. Adds all files, folders and keeps the folder structure intact!

Just drag and drop the folder you want on to either the file "Create CAB" or "Create DDF Only".

Scripts

"Create CAB" creates both the DDF and CAB files.

"Create DDF Only" only creates the DDF file.

Compatibility

The CAB files seems to work fine in Windows 98SE, Vista and 11 so far in my tests. Would expect the files to work in Windows XP, 7, 8 and 10 as well.

Alternatives

  1. Windows application named "CabMaker": https://github.com/sapientcoder/CabMaker
  2. Manually create DDF files and run the "makecab" command :-P

There are other scripts and examples, but none of the ones I found actually worked correctly.

Enable running scripts!

In order to run Powershell scripts, run the file Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted.bat

Or run the powershell command "Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted".

You can revert to default settings with "Set-ExecutionPolicy Default" and "Set-ExecutionPolicy Default All" for all scopes.
