Cab Viewer Mystery

[computerwizkid]

I need help.I recently used TugZIp ,but I uninstalled it and went back to WinRAR.Since I uninstalled it,I can't open cab files using the normal CAB viewer built into Windows.I need to get this fixed so I can start back on my project again and WinRar is not good at CAB files.Please tell me how to set cab files to open in the built-in CAB viewer.

Reply as fast as you can.

1. Find a cab file

2. Hold shift key down and right click on the file

3. Choose "open with"

4. Scroll down the list until you find cab file viewer

5. Be sure "always use this program IS checked

6. Click OK

or Reinstall cab file viewer

This in not Microsofts fault.

There is no Cab file viewer entry in the Open With.. Dialog.The viewer is run in cabinet.dll.

im not sure if this is correct but it would be a command like

rundll32.exe cabinet.dll

or

rundll32.exe cabinet.dll,"specific function in dll file with out the quotes"

[eidenk]

Start Menu -> Run and type regsvr32 cabview.dll

Oops, sorry about that. I vaguely remember installing it years ago so I thought it was a program. Now I remember that it was part of the Win95 powertoys. Most of these were installed by the inf files so if you can find the cabview.inf file and right click on it and choose nstall, that should also work. I use Izarc which does not do a half bad job with cab files.
