About CabPack
On this page you can download the latest version of CabPack, a freeware
compression program with which you can create cabinet (.CAB) files. With
just a few mouse clicks you specify which files to compress, which compression
method to use, where the output files should go and whether or not the
cabinet files should span multiple disks. CabPack is able to store subdirectories,
and depending on the platform you wish to extract the cabinets on, it can
create .CAB files that contain long filenames or store these long filenames
in the 8.3 format.
CabPack runs with Windows 95, 98, and NT 4. Written 1999 by Lars Hederer.

only)
Please note: At the moment I’m not planning to put more work into CabPack, so you don’t need to email me requesting new features for the program. Especially, unless I find a possibility to create SFX archives without having to use EXTRACT.EXE, CabPack will NOT have built-in creation of self-extracting archives (EXE files). For this task you should use Microsoft’s IEXPRESS (see the documentation for more detail). However, you may check back here from time to time to see if a new version
is available. And if you have any comments or questions regarding the program
(or find any bugs), please don’t hesitate to email
me!
