But the only thing which I couldn't find is to add directory with subdirectories inside it while generating exe files. Because what I know is that it generates exe files only of a directory and it does not take subdirectories inside a directory. If you know any trick for this, then shall be grateful to you know if you will let me know. This website offers wonderful tricks, thanks for that. Regards, Amar Jain.

I covered iexpress because it is already present on every windows users machine and doesn’t require the user to download anything.
