I feel like this would also solve the "I just need the printer driver file(s), not everything else" use-case. Nice work.

Printer drivers rarely if ever come in MSI format. They most commonly use self extracting exe archive.
Yeah, start the installer, quickly look at the temp directory for the files, nab em then quit the installer. This and many other janky techniques are what I use to survive in the jungles of the Windows platform.
I would also like to promote one of my most favorite tools ever: InstallWatch Pro by Epsilon Squared
It takes a complete HDD and Registry snapshot, you install something then it takes another snapshot and shows you the diff in a easy to read format.
Thank you for InstallWatch Pro mention. That app tends to get reinvented every so often. I remember seeing something like it as early as 1996.
