I have been looking for something like this for a while. This will save me countless hours! Thank you!!!!

Just trying to download the software

Did you have a problem with the link that says "Download the program and source code here!"?

Hi,

I have downloaded this new release and when i am running the .exe inside, i am still having an interface similar to the previous release (missing the summary tab). The interface also looks like the previous one. I have tried to compile with the build batch file, but it changed nothing.

I am on Microsoft.NET Framework v1.1.4322

Please help!
Thanks for this great tool

Here is the link i have used http://blogs.pingpoet.com/overflow/pubfiles/lessmsierables-20051104.zip

Bummer, I just had a build that was slightly older in that zip. The latest is at the following location (I updated the link in the post also. Sorry for the confusion.

Please please please please add MSP files support. You can find Windows installer patch files (MSP files) in any Office update or SP released by MS.

Thank you very much. Excellent tool!

Thanks!

This looks like just what I've been looking for. Unfortunately I think there's an issue with Micro$oft's so-called web setup, or with ini files.

I am trying to determine if the MSVC SDK has a corrupt cabinet file. The lessMSI program doesn't let me point to a different INI file or I can't find out how to set up different parameters. Is that possible?

I get the same issue from the gui version or the command line with "-x" option.

In other situations it looks just the ticket. Well done.

Cheers,
William

quick question... why did you make this a console app that opens a form? I modifed your version for my own use to use open up as an app without the console window popping up for a sec, and it seems to run fine. plz let me know what i killed by doing this.

Very nice :-) Should be useful in my line of work

Hi Scott, this is a nice app.

Just wanted to report a small issue. In the Extract Files tab all the files of the opened .msi are by default checked, but if you go straigth to the Export Button nothing happens, because in the corresponding event handler you checked for the selection of items, not if they were checked or not. Selection means that they are blue, to make it simple, not that they are checked.

Just replace the lines

<code>
if (this.fileList.SelectedItems.Count == 0)
return;
</code>

with

<code>
if (this.fileList.CheckedItems.Count == 0)
return;
</code>

Thanks again for your work.

This works great! However, many of the machines I use don't have .NET for one reason or another. Is there a way I can use this by putting the .NET dlls in the same dir as the .exe? I've tried but it still doesn't work and still tells me to install it so maybe I'm missing something or some regkeys. I don't know how .NET works but

how can I get it to run without .NET?

your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
THANKYOU!!

MSP's - I agree - that would be really useful....

Hi, just a bit confusion. From the link:
http://blogs.pingpoet.com/overflow/pubfiles/lessmsierables-20051110.zip

I still get a console application either in binary or from the C# source.

I cannot get the WinForm application GUI.

Why?

Thanks.
