How to Compress installation files using MST

Hi There,

You cannot change the compression rate of an MSI using an MST file as an MST is a special MSI database used a a lay-over on install.

If you want to compress the files into CAB files, you need first perform an administrative install, conver the MSI to WSI change the options to compress the files into CAB and re-compile the MSI.

Note: you will be modifying the vendor MSI when you perfom these actions so make a back-up first and check the EULA.
