Programmer Open .cab file (i pay for it)

[roriscrave]

I have a file named data.cab and inside it are the files tibia.dat and tibia.spr, I want to know if any programmer can open it to acquire these files.
Price to match (paid after show that actually managed to open tibia.dat and tibia.spr).
Thank you!

If this is a real .cab file (native to Windows) you can just double-click it and Windows will open it like a folder. If you're on macOS/Linux, you can easily find a free decompression tool (e.g., 7-Zip) to extract the files.

I already tried using 7z and also the cabextract in linux, both to no avail, I am willing to pay $ 50.00 for anyone who can help me, could you take a look?
data.cab

@roriscrave it looks like this is an actual .cab file, but one in a span of .cab files. Basically, .cab files can come in sets of multiple .cab files where the first .cab file contains the necessary data to decompress the other .cab files in the set. Without that first one, it's going to be near impossible to decompress this one.

It's also possible that my analysis is wrong, but I ran the file through trid file identifier (which has definitions for almost 10k file types), and it couldn't identify it. So, my conclusion is the most likely scenario.

If im not mistaken theres some commands within windows itself, msconfig. some directory commands to do it itself, or convert it to a wsp file, or so forth for read/only.
