Orca install package

Indeed, that's better like this. Last time I checked the core platform SDK, it was 250MB or something like that. Now if you could get this in the MSDN library / Windows installer page, this would be very good (everyone googling orca gets to the Windows installer page, but then today you are automatically redirected to the core platform SDK).
And sorry for mistaking Orcas and Orca.

Thank you very much for this. It is just what I needed!! You just saved me a large download when all I wanted is Orca. Much appreciated.

Sincerely,

Hi, it appears that my old ISP site was taken offline, so I've updated the link in the text of this blog post. Please let me know if the location at http://astebner.sts.winisp.net/Tools/Orca.zip does not work for you.

Praise the Lord: Orca is downloadable on it's own. Ah... Last time I did this, my blood was boiling.

Many Thanks astebner, for that link. Although it's over 12 months since you posted the information re Orca install, I was able to find the article in Yahoo search pages. I spent the whole day trying to download MS SDK Platform and there is still over a quarter of download left so if I continued on with their original download I would have been up all night too.

Thanks very much!!! This is exactly what I needed! I also had problems with the download of the SDK platform, now I don't need it anymore ;-)

Just another few words of thanks. Having to download a multi-megabyte SDK just to get an application I'm likely to only run once or twice is ridiculous.

Thanks a lot Aaron, very handy link.

You posted this article 18 months ago. Do you have any idea whether this download is still the latest Orca? Have you been updating the file? I don't expect you to go to all that trouble, I was just wondering.

Thanks again,
David

re: Orca install package

astebner — Thu, 09 Feb 2006 05:08:42 GMT

Hi David - I updated the Orca package once the MSI SDK for MSI 3.1 shipped. However, I don't know if I will continue to update it forever :-) The most reliable way to get the latest and greatest version of Orca is to install the Platform SDK, but for those of you who can't take the hundreds of megs of download to do that for whatever reason, this is available as a convenience.

Great post. It's an ordeal to download the simplest and smallest of tools from the microsoft site. They really have a warped mind.
This is so much easier.

Arun George John — Fri, 10 Feb 2006 12:13:22 GMT

Thank you so much! I wasted more than half an hour meandering on Microsoft's website looking for this download. Later, I googled your site! Thanks again!

How to use ORCA ?

re: Orca install package

astebner — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 18:43:02 GMT

Hi Siti - Once you install Orca, you can right-click on an MSI and choose Edit with Orca and that will allow you to view and edit the contents of an MSI file. Also, there is some information about Orca at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/msi/setup/orca_exe.asp. Hope this helps!
