For those who use UC or any other method of installing cabs, the major problem is when the app uses a PC installer and it erases the cab file after it finishes the install.

DigitalAttic found this site for me that will solve most of those problems

I've copied the revelent part below:

The trickier installation routines delete the CAB file after the installation, however the only way to install a program is through a .cab (or to copy an .exe) so every installer has to leave the .cab file on your harddrive for a small portion of time. For those installers here are the steps to getting the files:
  1. Connect your device
  2. Run the install for the program, click the appropriate yes's until,
  3. The Activesync message box for "install to default location" comes up--at this point don't click anything, let it sit
  4. Use the windows search or find feature(depending on what version of windows you are using) and search your local drives (including hidden and system folders) for *.cab it helps if you have an idea what the file name might be, or the date of the file, or what the temporary subdirectory it might be placed in is called, regardless that search will list all of the .cab files on your machine at that time.
  5. Copy and paste the .cab to your favorite storage location.
