WinRAR, widely recognized for its file compression and decompression capabilities, often goes beyond the typical RAR or ZIP formats. It shines with its feature to effortlessly and swiftly compress files into an executable (.exe) format.
For compressing files into an exe format using WinRAR, simply follow the outlined steps.
Step 1: Ensure WinRAR is installed on your PC, then launch the WinRAR program.
Click on Start, search for WinRAR in the Search programs and files section, and select WinRAR from the search results.
Alternatively, if you have the WinRAR icon on your Desktop from installation, just double-click it to open the program.
Step 2: Drag the file you wish to compress into the WinRAR application window.
Or, right-click on the file you want to compress and choose Add to Archive.
Step 3: In the Archive name and parameters window, you can name your compressed folder in the Archive name field or keep the default. Next, check the box next to Create SFX archive to generate an EXE format file. The file extension will automatically change from RAR or ZIP to EXE upon selection.
Step 4: Press OK to commence the creation of the EXE compressed file. Upon completion, the file will be in .exe format.
Easily, you have created an EXE format compressed file using WinRAR. The EXE file you compressed can self-extract even on computers without decompression tools. Wishing you success!
