Split PE Files into Separate Components

Description:

This script will split PE files into separate components, as per Windows Installer Best Practices.

Usage

CScript.exe {Script} {MSI}

Script

'set up log file

Dim objLogFile : Set objLogFile = fso.OpenTextFile(logFile, ForAppending, True)

WriteLog "Splitting PE Files into Separate Components"
WriteLog "Processing: " & MSIPath.Name
