Extract from SB5

[NewsArchive]

How can I extract files from a SB5 setup file?

I forgot to backup an executable of an old version.
I still have the generated setup.How can I re-extract from it?

Sim,

You have to install the setup to get the file.

Hi Friedrich,

Ok, but is that the only way? :-(

This setup is configured to install on a specific network folder and I do
not want to overwrite a current system.
This will mean having to install on an alien PC that has first been
configured etc.

Hi Sim,

Yes, that's the only way. Please keep in mind that SetupBuilder 5
compiles native Win32 executables. It's not a simple zip archive
or something like that.

And of course, this is a security factor. Or would you like to see
customers extracting files from your commercial installers?

Sim,
Why not rename the current network folder or make a copy of it to
another folder and then do the install?
