I am wondering if some applications > may say they are .exe, but are actually msi. How would you know? Windows distinguishes file types by file extensions. So if you have some_installer.exe, it is 100% exe installer, not MSI (unless someone did something stupid and change the file extension). However, sometimes these .exe files contain a compressed image, containing a MSI, which is later started via msiexec upon decompression. One such example is Adobe Reader, AFAIR. -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org |
