Ooops! I was fooling you. I'm very sorry.

The Setup.exe file was a test generated with Smart Install Maker.

Now I've tested it with the original setup and it works perfectly.

It generates two cab files and they don't give any problem with 7zip nor windows explorer nor cabextract.

The only bad thing I can see is that it doesn't keep the directory structure. (What I mean is that some files should be in a subfolder) However this is a minor failure.

Only a question: Why are there two cab files? I don't get it yet... Does it mean that Disk1 contains @$& files and Disk2 contains @$& files?

Thanks for your patience and effort! I'm a very foolish person and I speak/write before thinking.

Mistakes happen to everybody so don't worry. The good thing is that with your feedback the script now works correctly, everything else doesn't matter

Regarding the subfolders, the script considers the output folders where the files are meant to be "installed".
In fact if you check the %SYSTEMDIR% in the cabs you can see many subfolders.

The reason behind the 2 cabs is simply that there are just 2 cabs in the installer, you can see the "flags" field in the script that is set as CAB_FLAG_HASNEXT in the original cabs.

Ok, I understood it. Thank you very much again! Now I tried it with another setup and it works well!
