Using this .Bat for compression:

"echo Compressing files, please wait...
arc a -ep1 -w.\ .\Compressed\Data1.cab -msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:lc8 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Red Alert 3 Uprising"
echo.All done.
pause
Exit"

This is my Setup.ini Extract settings:
"FreeArcFile1={src}\Data1.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1 ;PrecSrep:1"

The Exact Error I get:
"An Error ocurred Wile Unpacking: Unknown compression Method!
Unarc.dll returned an error code: -2
ERROR: Unsupported compression method
srep+lzma:177mb:normal:bt4:128:mc1000:lc8"

I have tried recompiling, and recompressing at least 3 times and every time it's the same error.

I am using CI 8.5.7.4

Any ideas on how I can get it to work?
I'm Desperate.
remove precsrep:1 from freearcfile1 line & add PrecompVer=inside to top section in setup.ini
