Download DesktopDeployment.cab Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying DesktopDeployment.cab to your appropriate Windows system directory. Apple typically does not release Apple QuickTime Player CAB files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing DesktopDeployment.cab and all other CAB files for Apple QuickTime Player. An incorrectly installed CAB file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
