I was able to convert PNG files into ICO files (thanks to Turn pngs to one ICO file ), but now I would like to create an icon "bundle" similar to system32.dll, which contains several individual icons. How can this be done?

I had the same problem with .mp3 files where I wanted to change the default audio icon. I solved that with program called Puddletag which merges images into the original .mp3 file. Is there something similar for .exe programs?
Here logo.svg represents the input (source) image,from which we create smaller files of the desired sizes(16.png, 32.png, etc.)which we then combine into the output (result) icon file, favicon.ico. You can change the list of sizes in line 3,e.g., to "16 24 32 48 64 72 128",and the convert command will automatically adapt accordingly,because this script uses the technique described by G-Manin his answer here to build an array of filenames. And finally we unlink (remove) the PNG files created in line 4,using the array of filenames again.
I made a script for windows and I saved it as png2icon.bat.as a side note, you need to download imagemagick, and put its path into your path environment variable, then you can easily use this script.
Bundling all application-dependent files into a single binary provides an application developer with the attractive option to deploy and distribute the application as a single file. Single-file deployment is available for both the framework-dependent deployment model and self-contained applications.
Starting with .NET 5, only managed DLLs are bundled with the app into a single executable. When the app starts, the managed DLLs are extracted and loaded in memory, avoiding the extraction to a folder. On Windows, this approach means that the managed binaries are embedded in the single file bundle, but the native binaries of the core runtime itself are separate files.
Single file deployment doesn't bundle native libraries by default. On Linux, the runtime is prelinked into the bundle and only application native libraries are deployed to the same directory as the single file app. On Windows, only the hosting code is prelinked and both the runtime and application native libraries are deployed to the same directory as the single file app. This approach is to ensure a good debugging experience, which requires native files to be excluded from the single file.
This tutorial is broken down into a series of steps, using PyInstaller to build first simple, and then increasingly complex Tkinter applications into distributable EXE files on Windows. You can choose to follow it through completely, or skip ahead to the examples that are most relevant to your own project.
The simplest way to get these data files into the dist folder is to just tell PyInstaller to copy them over. PyInstaller accepts a list of individual file paths to copy over, together with a folder path relative to the dist/ folder where it should to copy them to.
In this tutorial we've covered how to build your Tkinter applications into a distributable EXE using PyInstaller, including adding data files along with your code. Then we walked through the process of building the application into a Windows Installer using InstallForge. Following these steps you should be able to package up your own applications and make them available to other people.
As projects need more testing during the SDLC process, code alterations are problems one does not hope to encounter. In addition, one prefers quick project distribution. We can solve these by compiling them into Node.js executable files either with or without resources as preferred.
Note. AppData folder is hidden. To make it visible, go to Folder options in Control Panel, switch to View tab and select Show hidden files, folders, or drives.Paste the shortcut into the SendTo folder.
So, what do I do to open files in different windows in modern Excel versions? Nothing special :) Just use the Open command in Excel or double-click a file in Windows Explorer. To open a file in a new Excel instance, follow these instructions.
Tip. To switch between different windows displaying different spreadsheets, use the Ctrl + F6 shortcut.How to open multiple instances of ExcelWhen opening multiple files in Excel 2013 and later, each workbook is displayed in a separate window. However, they all open in the same Excel instance by default. In most cases, that works just fine. But if you execute a long VBA code or recalculate complex formulas in one workbook, other workbooks within the same instance may become irresponsive. Opening each document in a new instance solves the problem - while Excel performs a resource-consuming operation in one instance, you can work in a different workbook in another instance.
For point 2: use multiple instances; I just made the above steps to work.Instead of opening the last active Excel window and then waiting for a while (!), it now opens another Excel window right away.A huge performance increase I migth say...The only thing is you can't pin items to it. Could be solved by creating shortcuts for files you use frequently, as ASG points out at his msg from September 8, 2022 at 8:33 am.Or: use the alt key in explorer, as mentioned above. But the order is a bit wacky, double click and longpress alt, then click yes (message box is not active and the no button is default selected), a bit of a hassle.Or: open a new instance, go to explorer, drag and drop the file into the Excel window.Or open a new instance, ctrl+o, open pinned items there.
This splash screen is based on Tcl/Tk, which is the same library used by the Pythonmodule tkinter. PyInstaller bundles the dynamic libraries of tcl and tk into theapplication at compile time. These are loaded into the bootloader at startup of theapplication after they have been extracted (if the program has been packaged as anonefile archive). Since the file sizes of the necessary dynamic libraries are very small,there is almost no delay between the start of the application and the splash screen.The compressed size of the files necessary for the splash screen is about 1.5 MB.
As an additional feature, text can optionally be displayed on the splash screen. Thiscan be changed/updated from within Python. This offers the possibility todisplay the splash screen during longer startup procedures of a Python program(e.g. waiting for a network response or loading large files into memory). Youcan also start a GUI behind the splash screen, and only after it is completelyinitialized the splash screen can be closed. Optionally, the font, color andsize of the text can be set. However, the font must be installed on the usersystem, as it is not bundled. If the font is not available, a fallback font is used.
It is possible to take your .au3 script and compile it into a standalone executable; this executable can be used without the need for AutoIt to be installed and without the need to have AutoIt3.exe on the machine. The compilation process converts the script and its #include files, plus any files added by the FileInstall function, into a tokenised form which is then compressed and encrypted. In that way none of these additional files are required at runtime. Depending on the compilation option chosen, this "compiled" script will either be inserted into the resources of a stand-alone executable interpreter which will run it directly or saved in .a3x format. An .a3x file can be included in another script or run by an AutoIt interpreter - either Autoit3.exe itself or another compiled script with the AutoItExecuteAllowed flag set.
By calling build.archive, it's possible to declare a new archives andthe file lists they will be included in. (It's rare to use anythingbut the all file list, however.) To use an archive, classify filesinto a list with its name.
To solve this problem, Ren'Py allows you to place the .rpyc files froma previous distribution into the old-game directory, which is alongsidethe game directory. The directory structure of old-game/ should matchthe directory structure of game/. For example, game/scripts/day1.rpycshould be moved to old-game/scripts/day1.rpyc. Files in old-game that arenot .rpyc files are ignored.
Microsoft Windows provides a utility that allows you to zip multiple files into a single compressed file format. This is especially helpful if you are emailing files as attachments or if you need to conserve space (zipping files can reduce file size by up to 50%).
You can package all the files into a zip file and rename it as package.nw. And put it along with NW.js binaries for Windows and Linux. For Mac, name it app.nw and put it in nwjs.app/Contents/Resources/.
By default, the deployment package uses auxiliary files from java.com to support web deployment. This is the preferred way, because it enables the application to always use the best way to deploy on the web. However, if you want to test your application in a closed network then you can include these files into your application package. To do this, pass includeDT="true" as an attribute in the Ant task.
Often in the articles that I write, I include various Registry files to save your time. They come with a number of changes in different root keys of the Registry. You can save your time even more by combining various Registry tweaks into a single file so you only have to merge that one file into the Registry. In this article, we will see how it can be done and how to make this process faster.
To combine multiple registry files into a single one, you need to open each file with Notepad (or with another text editor), copy everything after the first line and paste it into the resulting file, then save it with the *.reg extension. The combined file should also have the beginning line once to make Registry Editor recognize it as a genuine REG file.
Starting with version 0.7.0.1, the app comes with a "Merge Reg Files" tool. Using its simple user interface, you can add the desired Registry files and combine them instantly by clicking on the "Merge" button. 2ff7e9595c
