Bat2Exe is a Windows software that allows you to transform existing automation scripts into EXE format, making them easier to run on target systems without needing an interpreter. It protects source code by hiding original file content, which prevents unauthorized access to the original logic.

Conversion instructions

The first step is to import the desired BAT file via the corresponding button in the main window. After that users can configure advanced operation parameters such as the preferred data obfuscation method. Similar to WinZip, there is support for several common compression algorithms like:

GZIP;
QuickLZ;
Izma.

Checkboxes to manually choose the icon for the resulting executable and hide the console when the file is open are provided. This is particularly beneficial when automating multiple tasks simultaneously. There is an option to encrypt the resulting package as well, protecting sensitive or proprietary information.

Compilation process

You are able to monitor the overall operation progress in the Compile tab. All critical events and potential errors are displayed in the log section, facilitating easy troubleshooting of arising technical issues.
