Version: FreeExtractor 1.43
"Perfect for VB6 Deployment"
Summary: This is exactly what I've been looking for. The Package and Deployment Wizard is good, but doesn't allow for single executable deployment. I was dreading having to go the over-complicated MSI route, or purchasing expensive setup software. PKZip can do something similar (automatically run an executable after extracting it), but it's still very obvious that it's a PKZip archive (prompts for extract location and such). Free Extractor essentially inserts itself as 'step 0' of your installation wizard What would make this near-perfect utility even better would be an option to skip the FreeExtractor window entirely: extract my setup files into a temp folder, run the setup.exe, then delete the setup files - all without any user interaction. Ooh baby!
