Don't get an .exe file if i run the application ma

[Sarah83]

Hi,

i want to create an .exe file. I run the application maker as everytime

but now on a special .vi i don't get an -exe file, only a normal file.

The proberty datatype of all my other .exe files is application. But from

my new file, the datatype ist only file. It is an other icon, too.

But the installer is there. After installing i try to run this file, but

everytime i shoult choose a programm from a list for opening.

What could be the problem? :headbang:

Hmm,

In application builder, have you included a toplevel VI in your Source Files tab?

Maybe the Application name in the builder settings doesn't have the .exe extension :question:

I have a toplevel .vi under source files and there is the extension .exe

Assuming you use Windows and you have the option "hide extension for known filetypes" (or similar, unfortunately I have only german OS) active in your windows explorer, then there might be something after ".exe" you don't see.

Also make sure in your LV app builder the name you give to your application hasn't leading and/or tailing space-character.
