After the CAB file is copied to your device, open the CAB file on the device to install it. If your device has a graphical shell, you can do this by double clicking on the CAB file. If you do not have a graphical shell, you can run wceload at a command prompt to open the CAB file.

To open a CAB file using wceload

  1. From a command prompt on the device, or a Target Control window, type wceload, followed by a space and the name of your CAB file. For example:

    wceload mycabfile.cab

  2. When installation is complete, verify that your application is installed on your device by looking for it in the location you specified when you created your INF file.

You can now run your application on your device.
