I ran into a problem trying to install US Money Deluxe Sunset on Win 10 where it required a reboot and appears to have aborted after the reboot.

My resolution that appears to have worked is as follows:

1. Create "Money files" by running "USMoneyDlxSunset.exe /T:path /C"

2. Run mnyinst.exe from the files created above.

Good going. I wonder if you would have been able to run the USMoneyDlxSunset.exe file with RunAsAdministrator and not had to expand. I don't know if that would have been sufficient.

mcd, can you refresh my memory on what the /T:path /C does? It sounds like this would be a nice way of creating backup install media on a USB drive, with all of the file substitutions needed pre-installed (like the patched dll and invoice.ntd file).

Not directly answering your question but on Unix I am using cabextract to extract the content of the *.exe file. So I think you can use rename

USMoneyDlxSunset.exe to USMoneyDlxSunset.cab

and see if Windows file explorer will let you extract/view it.

$ file USMoneyDlxSunset.exe

USMoneyDlxSunset.exe: PE32 executable (GUI) Intel 80386, for MS Windows, MS CAB-Installer self-extracting archive

On your original question, I am guessing

/T for temp directory or target (where to extract the content)

/C to create directory as needed

If you run "USMoneyDlxSunset.exe /?" the popup will show you the available options and what they are:

Thank you Bob! Even though most of us hopefully have the install file for our version of Money backed up somewhere, I think I'm going to use the command line to recreate a backup installation with all of my customizations (sound files), business invoice templates and logos, patched dll, etc. all folded in, so that if I ever need to reinstall Money - it will be easy peasy. It might be nice for someone wanting to install Money, that comprehend the instructions for installing the patch too.
