Hi, I wouldn't have been trying that if PAR-Packer packed better and upx generated exes weren't half the size of pp exes. BTW upx -d on the upx compressed pp exe produces an exe that works so upx isn't throwing away data required to run. Are the "magics" done by pp and upx incompatible in an unfixable way? 26.07.2019, 19:46, "Roderich Schupp via RT" <bug-par-pac...@rt.cpan.org>: <URL: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=130180 > On 2019-07-25 23:49:10, noobposter...@yandex.com wrote: Hi, The PAR::Tutorial suggests using upx to reduce exe sizes however this no longer seems to work:When I run the upx generated executable I get the following error messages: Don't do that then.
