It's been a while since I had to push out an EXE app (as most now come with MSI), anyhow this vendor is still stuck a few decades behind ;) I vaguely recall having an application that converted EXE to MSI, but cant remember it for the life of me. What do most people do/use to deploy an executable? Thanks
