I know Vmware ThinApp and Spoon Studio but I've never give them a try before. Maybe, it's time to look at them
Hi catalin, Long time no see but i'm always read the thread I have some feature request/ideas for ExeBuilder, nothing too difficult 1) I have noticed now, Spoon can manage entry point with command line parameter, many application has different command line parameters for his exe's ( like minimized start, just for make an example ) If i make a .dat with an entry point and a command line parameter and use ExeBuilder for generate an exe work. But i think is useful to add a column for command line in exe builder, better if it is editable, so you can manage different command line for the same exe 2) ExeBulder can be started in unlimited instance...noone need that Add a check for the process before start the software, it's better to have only one instance for the application You can add an msgbox with an error like "you can start only one Exebuilder at time" or simply don't start the software if an instance is already running withoot any notice. 3) I have noticed a strange behavior, I do not know if it is normal. This is the an example situatution: Open Exebuilder I have two entry point: Notepad calc I delete calc and i compile only Notepad entry. So i have: The .dat notepad.exe Now i open again ExeBuilder, i have always 2 Entry Point This time i delete notepad entry and i compile calc. The situation is: The .dat calc.exe Where is notepad? I don't understand why ExeBuilder automatically delete it. I think is useful to add a checkbox like "preserve other .exe", i know i can copy-paste before start again ExeBuilder, but if is possible add this option That's all, thanks
I'm sorry to say but because of some big problems in my life I gave up programming and virtualizing completely. But I will try to answer: 1. Yes, this would of been useful but not too much because just a few users know how to properly modify the command line + not many programs requires this. A temporary solution is to modify and/or create a new shortcut in the Spoon Studio project, with the desired command line. 2. Yes, but: a) there aren't many users who will use 2 or more sessions simultaneously. b) on multicore/multiprocessor computers sometimes you can speed up the compiling process by using 2 or more instances for 2 or more projects. 3. Yes, this is how I made ExeBuilder. Why? Because: a) the user wants only that/those exe file(s). b) there is the possibility that one or more of the old exe(s) could not work well with the dat file (if it was recompiled). So ExeBuilder erase them to be sure. c) Some antiviruses would find very suspicious that ExeBuilder is trying to overwrite an exe file with the other exe file. But if the file is deleted first and after some time a new file is created - this will cause less problems. Regards, Catalin
Hi, is anybody that can help me to retrieve the ExeBuilder file? The links at 1st page don't work. Thanks. Best.
Really sorry to hear that, I hope you Never gave up and i wish to see you back soon. I Registered only to say that also wanna thank you for the amazing ExeBuilder.
The solution is to disable your internet connection before the first run of the program and once the sandbox created you can re-enable your internet connection and if you started the program previously and the sandbox folder already has been created just delete it and start the program again hope this help you.

Thanks for this great application a_catalin. Unfortunately it's not compatible with recent versions of spoon (v10.4). Does anybody know any alternative? Thanks in advance
There isn't any alternative. Wait for the catalin's new version ( when he come back, hope soon he can resolve his problems ) or use the previous Spoon version ( work with 10.4.2380, i don't have test the 10.4.2487 )
Please do not write wrong information I'm sure ExeBulder work with 10.4.2380, i have use it and no problem at all, maybe you do something wrong? I don't have test the 10.4.2487 so i don't know if work or not, when i have some time i'll test it but the previus version work fine with ExeBuilder EDIT: ExeBulder work with 10.4.2487! Tested it now, no errors, no problem. Please don't write wrong information next time, thanks
Could someone please, send me via PM the oficial/direct link or something else, to download the latest version of spoon studio? Thanks in advance. Not needed. I Just downloaded it.
Actually I tried it on 2380 and 2487, and although I specified the output file, it gives me "Could not find output file name in the project file!" message, and after clicking OK it exits. I used EXEBuilder many times before and with large application without any problems though.
