Extract drivers from .exe files

29 Jun

 

Sometimes we need some drivers or others files but the producer gives us only an exe to install in windows, for example when we need:
  • integrate Sata drivers in an Xp installation disc;
  • ppd file to install a printer under Linux system;
If we don’t want install the program and after copy the only files that we need, we can digit in a Windows’ cmd this command
 
C:\file_name.exe -a -a -p C:\custom
and confirm all the passages as we real want install the program.
The result is that Windows extracts all the files in folder whit the name “custom” under disk C without installs the program.
