7z to sfx Converter

#1 Post by loin2kolpotoru »

Some times after compressing a big size file or folder with 7-zip
which needs a lot of time for giving someone who didnot have any
archiving program installed i need it to be self extracting. But
7-zip dosenot have the option to convert existing 7z or zip files
to self extracting & recompressing the file or folder agin to make
it sfx will again wast a lot of time so i am making a 7z to to exe converter
which will convert 7z & zip files to Self extracting Archives.

What is your opnion about this?

I, for one, follow your rationale, loin2kolpotoru, and would like to use such converter sometimes...

Doesn't this program already do that? Does your program work better?

The main difference is simplicity, my program is just one small
executable which dose not need installation, setting or anything else
just run it and select a *.zip or *.7z file and it will give you a Self
Extracting Executable.
