    Resolved [RESOLVED] [2008] Deployment: How can I make a single setup.exe?

    Hi guys,
    I finished my program, then created an installer using deploymant tool. Problem is there are two seperate files: setup.exe and installer.exe. These two files run together. How could make a single setup.exe file? Thank you for all your help.

    Windows includes a tool called IExpress to create self-extracting archives. You can run it from Start -> Run. It will build an executable that will self-extract and then execute setup.exe.

    EDIT: Oops, just re-read JMCs post and realised he already covered what I said.
