Extracting a TapeTrack MSI from the setup.exe

TapeTrack Windows Programs are provided in the format of an InstallShield setup executable.

This setup program will take care up upgrading the product and installing any prerequisites, such as Visual Studio runtimes.

If you wish to extract the encapsulated MSI from the setup executable you can run the setup with arguments to extract the MSI first.

setup.exe /s /x /b"C:\MSI" /qn /v

In the above example, the MSI will be extracted from the C:\MSI folder.

When running this command, the setup will try to install being extracted. Hit Cancel.
