Why MS should be asked for a file they didn't create? it doesn't work without dism, because it's missing WSUSSCAN.cab = WUA metadata you cannot create that one, and it won't run without authentic digital signature
How can one install CAB files from context menu in Windows 11? It's annoying having to install them with Windows Terminal/Command Prompt/PowerShell every time a new CAB update is out. I downloaded and run those .REG files which supposedly add an "Install" entry in the context menu when right-clicking CAB files but it wasn't created.
This one works fine for me. Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CABFolder\Shell\RunAs] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CABFolder\Shell\RunAs] @="Install" "HasLUAShield"="" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CABFolder\Shell\RunAs\Command] @="cmd /k dism /online /add-package /packagepath:\"%1\"" If you're using the "new" W 11 context menu you need to click show more options. HTH. Spoiler: Context menu
How come is that since according to the picture you showed that entry already appears without even having to click in "Show more options"? Anyway, I already used that .REG file from a site and it didn't work.
If you use 7-zip or Winrar, it may change the default CABFolder association https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1547243/
How come that has to do with the "Install" entry not being created in the context menu? Anyway, I don't understand why I have to set the default apps for some extensions in the Settings app when I already did that after setting WinRAR and the other programs and the default apps remain unchanged in the Settings app.
Trust what abbodi1406 told you. This is a fact - if the application intercepts the association, then the context menu will not appeare. You must change association as open with Explorer.
Ok, but I tried changing the CAB association and the Settings apps freezes (although I can close it normally) so I can't change the former. Anyway, that doesn't change the fact that I have to set the default apps for some extensions in the Settings app when I already did that after setting WinRAR and the other programs and the default apps remain unchanged in the Settings app. EDIT: I reinstalled Windows 11 and I still can't change the default apps. It must be related to NTLite and the integration of the latest updates since it was working fine before integrating them but after installing (at least) the LCU it no longer is. Since I installed the penultimate CU right before installing the LCU, it may have broke it and not the LCU or maybe it was the 22H2 install, which may be more likely since until recently NTLite didn't support the latter and because of that I didn't integrate it until it did and it was working fine and after integrating it, it no longer is. Anyway, I ran the previously mentioned .REG on a 22621 build created by NTLite, it created the "Install" context menu entry and I didn't even have to click in "Show more options". Its weird associating WinRAR with the .CAB extension causes this issue. How can I change this "Install" entry so that it matches my language? EDIT 2: It was the taskbar Popups removal by NTLite that caused this issue. It's weird, since I already removed it before installing the 22H2 EP and I didn't have this error. Just to be sure, I did a test and integrated the 22H2 EP with NTLite and removed taskbar Popups and I had this problem and did another one and this time didn't integrated the 22H2 EP and removed taskbar Popups and I didn't have it so something is different after installing the 22H2 EP. Now I can change the default apps since the Settings app doesn't freeze and the window shows up.
I had that happen with WinRar becoming associated with *.ISO files. I had to undo that in order to be able to mount the ISO so I could run DISM, etc. File associations can be tricky things.
