If you find yourself installing .cab files regularly, you can add "Install CAB" to your Context Menu with this easy to use registry hack.
CAB files are provided by Microsoft, most commonly for Windows Updates before they are officially released. With a simple registry hack, we can add or remove this option.
Reboot for the changes to apply.
If you'd like to make the registry files yourself, the code can be found in this guide.
This tweak is included as part of MajorGeeks Registry Tweaks.

Editor's Note:
If you do not see the "Install" command when you right click on a CAB file, chances are you have some other app that takes over that extension's association such as WinRAR as by default, WinRAR takes over that file extension association. To resolve this, uninstall WinRAR then reboot, now confirm that you have the "Install" command when you right click on a CAB file. You can then re-install WinRAR but when the setup ends, and you see a list of the file extensions it handles, uncheck the "CAB" extension, so WinRAR does not associate itself with that extension."
