Hi Gregory,

You need to send the entire Windows folder to your users. This includes the 
separate stack files, referenced files if there are any, and the externals 
folder. You might leave out the externals folder if you really want to.

If you prefer to send just one file, you could use the Installer Maker Plugin. 
This plugin creates one .exe file, which you don't need to compress to send it 
to your users. The .exe file doesn't need any externals, so you don't need to 
include that folder, even if your own standalone needs externals (but you need 
to include the externals when you make the installer). You can find the 
Installer Maker Plugin here http://qery.us/za
