I don't know why I didn't notice this earlier. It's my favorite way to compile AHK scripts. Thanks for the update.

Thanks for this.
Since it is possible to change the window class of compiled scripts by manually editing AutoHotkeySC.bin, do you think you could add this as a feature?

Mercury233,
Is there a way to make this work to bulk compile scripts? I have over 400 scripts used by various people and would like to generate bulk compile to exe.

+1 for understanding of Resources tab.
I can still use FileInstall correctly, as AHK2Exe still runs, and if I don't have my included files in the right spots, it still complains.
So what then does the Resources tab do? How do we reference it ?

Now that UPX is back (
https://upx.github.io/), has anybody used Compile_AHK II (
https://github.com/mercury233/compile-ahk) to compile?
As this AHK compiler has the UPX option versus the MPRESS option with the standard AutoHotkey compiler.
Does anybody have an opinion on if UPX is better than MPRESS (to include about security or AV issues) or vice versa?

Hi, I am new to autohotkey. Yesterday I compiled simple script (rebind of key from keyboard to mouse). I used compiler from link above. Script .exe file was detected by Avira. I run it anyway assuming its normal. After reboot I could not shutdown my PC - it went "locked" state instead. I decided to remove script file and with admin right I got message , that I cannot removed it as its used by XXXXX DESKTOP/ <computername>.
This sound suspicious. Any advice what is and what is not normal behaviour here ?

I downloaded + Compile_AHK_Setup.exe and when I choose an icon, I get a message that says it doesn't exist.

Recent versions of "ahk2exe.exe" got quite an update, which broke compatibility with Compile_AHK 0.9.2.
edit: Set Script Compiler Directives (version 1.1.33+). See answer from TAC109.
