- "VINST17"," program file."
- "VINST18",""
- "VINST19","2) Next, have this EXE install file extract and unpack all internal"

- "VINST33",""
- "VINST34"," SLOTLOAD.EXE /X C:\TEST"

- "VINST36"," The install EXE will unpack and place ALL packed files into the"

- "VINST45"," SLOTLOAD.EXE /Z C:\TEST"
