The second version of the program for automatic compression of .EXE files in the selected directory and all its sub-directories.

 

Compression of .EXE files

Compressing an .EXE significantly reduces the size of the file especially if it includes BMP images internal storage files that are linked when the program is compiled. It also disables the "Sniffing & Edit" of text strings in the file makes it difficult to decompile backwards adds protection against infection while leaving all the key functions of the boot .EXE file. Windows does not detect the difference between a standard and a compressed file.

 

When a file compressed in this way is executed it is decompressed into memory and executed. The decompression algorithm is designed for the fastest possible decompression which is barely noticeable in large programs. On the other hand the compression of .EXE files can be quite demanding depending on the set configuration it is performed in several steps and if it is set to high efficiency it is VERY LONG TIME !!!

Tip:

For optimal settings of the compression configuration a compression time indicator is inserted in the Settings window.
