I am new to this coding world. So forgive me if any dumb question is asked or I made any mistakes
I am making a cpp tool which works well on my machine & also on others too. But inside it there is a function which works with some BAT & VBS files stored in a separate folder. Now the problem is when I am sharing the EXE file it is not working as the folder directory can not be found on other devices.
Now how can i solve this scenario? Is there a way to make installer for the console app which will copy the necessary files and folders in to the user's C drive? Or can I include the files into the EXE and extract them to a folder so the the program can use those?
Is there any possible solution for this ?
I am using Visual Studio Code & mingw gcc compiler for building the app
How about creating installer using setup creator(https://installforge.net). You can package multiple files in the installer and select installation directory to something like c:/program files/your_application_name. That way your executable and other files will be in the same folder and it will also create a start menu shortcut
