How do I...?

Create a Single-File Executable

Once you have finished creating your application, AutoPlay Media Studio offers the option to publish your project to a single executable. When the user runs this file, it extracts the contents to a temp directory and launches your application. When your application is exited, the temp directory and contents are deleted.

To bundle your project into one executable file:

  1. Choose Publish > Build from the menu.

  2. Select Web/Email executable.

  3. Click Next.

  4. Enter the desired path and filename.

  5. Click Build.

Note: Selecting the password protect option does not affect how the user runs your program. The password protect option generates a random password preventing the user from uncompressing the executable file and gaining access to your raw files.
