The OTHER FILES button displays a File Selection Box of files which can be chosen and compiled into a Standalone EXE option. More than one file may be chosen. The selected files will be displayed in the WinBatch Compiler Dialog box next to the OTHERFILES button. The OTHER FILES are written to the current directory. If the directory is write protected, an error will occur. If you would like to explicitly place the OTHER FILES somewhere other than the current directory, the Compiler contains a SETTINGS option to skip auto-extraction of extenders and "other files". ExtractAttachedFile() allows you to programmatically extract an embedded files from a Standalone EXE (except the WIL DLL, it is always extracted, if necessary).
Notes: Keep in mind that adding too many large EXTENDERS and OTHER FILES can increase demands on memory and could cause an issue. This is dependent on available system memory. It should not have any effect on the script execution itself, once the files get unloaded.
