Answer 1

Hi kumar-9444,

As Erland mentioned, please make sure SPS_9.4.7.25_1033.cab is in C:\New folder.
And try to put the CAB files and installation media file in the same folder on the machine.
Please also check this doc which might be helpful.

Best Regards,
Amelia

Answer 3

I played with this and also read the link that Amelia provided. The UI is misleading, because that it is not the place it is looking. It's looking in your %TEMP% folder. Open a command-line window and type

echo %TEMP&

to find out.

Once I had place the cab file there, Next lit up.

Also, I think you have the wrong file. SPO_4.5.12.120_1033.cab appears to be the right guy.
