Install CAB file in Windows 10

For Windows 10, this is not correct. For example for Realtek drivers, .CAB files MUST be extracted to it's own folder and then installed through "Device Manager->Update Driver Software..." and then selecting the extracted .CAB folder. This will also install the Realtek Audio Manager automatically(confirmed this).

DISM cannot install these Realtek .CAB files, no matter what you try to do.

I tried that, but an error always occur while it's installing. How are you gonna install your realtek Audio default from win10 if it doesn't install properly?

You are not helping. This thread is for possible solutions for the problem.

OK so heres the easiest way i found to install them on windows 10.....download the cab file obviously....extract it with winrar or 7z or whatever program you prefer i use winrar cuz its simple

go to your taskbar at the bottom of the screen somewhere on there hopefully you will see a speaker icon right click on it as seen below highlight playback devices also seen below



should bring up a window right click on speakers or headphones doesnt matter
go to properties



then another window will open and it will show this


look for controller information and click on properties
i will open another window that looks like this (note you may have to click on change settings under the general tab)

click on the driver tab click update then click browse my computer then u will see another window that you can find where you downloaded and extracted the cab file choose that folder (by the way in windows 10 typically its saved under c: then users then whatever your user name is then look for a blue arrow that says downloads)





then click next will install files automatically

would of taken more screen shots but its a pain and the process is pretty simple i
