Incase anyone else is interested...
I looked but could not find (it was late) a "Right Click to Install CAB" for vista but i could only find an XP one.
I took a quick look & it seemed simple enough to modify so I did just that.
Attached is the modifed Installer (zipped).
I got the original xp version here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298499 <<

lol.
In XP you can use a little cmd file so that you can install cab files directly to your phone by right clicking the file on your computer and the option "Install to ppc" will be there.
This is the vista version.
thanks sd00!
it also works great in Windows 7 and WM6.5.3.

From some days after i download Google Mobile app, then click the CAB file to running and make installation, some thing bad, i can't run CAB file and install it, i try with many cabs but same thing, no cab install, my device is HTC Toutch HD with Windows Mobile 6.1.
Please help me..
is there any error message shown or the phone just didn't respond you?
I guess you have to upgrade to WinMo 6.5 for a better performace and a way to fix that problem
No any respond.
I'm still waiting Official WM 6.5.

You have forgotten to mention was happens when "it doesn´t install a cab". Is there any error message?
There´s no need to wait for WM6.5 as cabs are installable even under WM 6.1.
Btw: I don´t think you will ever get any official version of WM 6.5 for Blackstone by HTC and cooked ROMs with WM 6.5 are available right now

Going to ask a basic query here, but I'm assuming you are trying to open cab file directly from your HD and not on your pc, yes? All cabs files need to be transferred onto your HD first and installed directly by using your file explorer to navigate to saved location and clicking on it.
As stated by Matthes42 above you do not need wm6.5 on your device for this to work. It should work fine on wm6.1
If this is what you are doing and its still not working can your provide the error message you recieve. Also, make sure you have .net framework 3.5 installed on your device.

This way is okay, but if you dont have that large a download allowance (like me) then dharvey4651's way is the best: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338473 This method work in win7 and vista as the drivers are interchangeable.
Hi everybody!
I finally have come to a satisfactory end with the installation of WinXP Home SP3 on my HTC Shift.
Nevertehless, while having the XP features running nomally, I got trouble starting the TabletPC side of the things, i.e.:
1. There is an icon for the on-screen keyboard "Tablet PC Input Panel" in the taskbar (on the r/h side) but it doesn't open-up anything.
2. I also have this "Get going with TabletPC" in Start Menu/Programs, but clicking it doesn't start anything.
3. During Windows start-up or shut-down I can see the on-screen keyboard for several seconds.
I wonder if this is a due to a faulty install of the TabletPC patch or something else that I did wrong. I remember that after installing the patch I had a special welcome screen of the TabletPC offering 2 options to follow - one was "Get going with TabletPC" and another one I can't remeber the name of. Anyway, I did not chose any option, I just closed that screen and went ahead with the installation of the drivers. So far I did not find a way to start that welcome screen again.
In MyComputer / Properties / General I can read MS Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005.
The installation sequence was XP Home - Patch Tablet PC - Drivers - Windows updates - I guess that this is the correct way.
Running the patch again after the drivers and updates, on Step 1 I got the message that the program cannot write to all the registries as some might be busy with other programs. Running Step2 doesn't change anything.
BTW: what is Step 3 for? It was not mentioned in the HowTo installation guide to be run (only Steps 1 and 2), so I did not touch it.
As this is the first time I see TabletPC at work, I kindly ask for good advise from the more experienced people on what to do further to make the TabletPC side work.
Here are also a few questions more:
a) Does the TabletPC Patch work OK with WinXP Home SP3 or does it require WinXP Professional? (I installed Home thinking that it is smaller and lighter)
b) Where to look in the installed files on c:\ and what to look for in order to make sure that the TabletPC files are there
c) How can I bring back that welcome TabletPC screen to play with it
Thank's very much for any usefull idea!
Hi!
It looks that there are very few people left on this forum still using Win XP on their Shift and also reading my thread....
To make the above raised topic more simple let me rephrase one question for the start:
Are there any members having on their HTC Shift the Tablet PC patch installed based on Win XP Home and NOT on XP Professional? Does the Tablet PC work all right with XP Home?
I certainly would much appreciate any confirmation or denial. Thank you.
Size of the TabletPC_PatchXPproSP2.exe file?
Hi everybody!
Please, I need somebody to confirm me that the correct size of the TabletPC_PatchXPproSP2.exe file is 154734723B in Windows Commander, shown also in Windows Explorer as 151109kB. I need to know if I got the correct file, if not then that would explain my above mentioned problems.
Thank you!

Edit: Is the Microsoft .NET framework required for installing the Tablet PC Patch?
Nothing, no idea?

Hi axelTP2 !
Since i ordered this days an used Shift (hope it will arrive tomorrow) im thinking of upgrading my Shift with XP or Win7 (I hate Vista)
So i looked a little around and find this at Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP_Tablet_PC_Edition#Tablet_PC_Edition
"Windows XP Tablet PC Edition is based on Windows XP Professional and includes all the software features provided in it"
So i think your problem is related to the (lighter) version of XP Home...
OK im not sure what i should use XP Pro as an lightweight OS or Win7 for full further support maybe give Vista a try for a few days

Hi tokl,
Thank you for answering.
No, my problem is not related to the use of XP Home. I have tried XP Prof with the same negative result. I think that the problem is related to a bad pack TabletPC_PatchXPproSP2 that I have downloaded from the only source that I've found.
So I keep digging for a solution on this topic.

This is probably more work than just a simple file patch, but since this is a technical site by nature, I don't think it's too much to put this suggestion here, which is a tutorial for you to patch your XP youself to make it w/ full Tablet functionality, same as real Tablet Edition:

Good luck!
I got this phone a few days ago but its not able to access Marketplace.. and I can't figure out how to update to windows 7. So I can use it...
I currently using mysimplemobile with the phone if that helps at all.
..is the phone still in WinMo 6.5? if so try the link below, it might help
The Windows Mobile market was shut down by Microsoft, so you can forget geting Windows Mobile apps from it. You need to just hit up google to find Windows Mobile apps, but a good place to look is Freeware Pocket PC, you can also download and install the Omarket and use it to get Windows Mobile apps. The apps will download in a .cab file and you use the file explorer to install the apps.
Now to be honest with you I suggest you install Android on your HD2 because Microsoft has all but phased out Windows Mobile and with the news of the changes that Windows Phone 8 I do not think the HD2 will be able to be updated to WP 8. But if you still want to use Windows Phone 7 then a good start would be the guide I have linked in my signature.
