If you want to copy files that come along the installer using CopyFiles. You can also simply compress them inside the installer.

Fix your caps lock key 😉

ohhh... for example CopyFiles "*.zip"

I dont think Ill compress 116 zip files with 20-30 MB in size inside the installer : /

No. Use:

CopyFiles "$EXEDIR\*.zip" $INSTDIR

This is only valid if you want to include your files along the installer and not in the EXE.
