How to Extract MSI Files (7-Zip utility)
Your Windows Installer Package format won’t open? This video will help. In just a few minutes, I’ll show you how to open, preview, and fix MSI files on Windows — including those your PC refuses to recognize.
MSI files are structured as a database containing tables that define the installation process. These tables specify the files to be installed, the registry keys to be created, and the actions to be performed during installation. The Windows Installer service interprets the MSI file and executes the installation according to the defined rules. MSI files can also include custom actions, allowing developers to extend the installation process with their own code.
