Archive: zip2exe limitations?


zip2exe limitations?
The zip2exe tool seems to do almost everything I want. The main limitation seems to be that it doesn't allow me to select files to create start menu or desktop links to when the program is installed. Is there an easy way to do so? That seems a pretty common feature of an installer so it seems odd to be missing.

Thanks.


zip2exe was not designed to make installers, it's function is to create SFX Archives out of zip files. To create an installer use NSIS itself.

There are several script creation wizards available that help you to generate more advanced script.

Try the script wizard of HM NIS Edit (you can find it on the NSIS download page).
