    hi I have developed a vbs file which will execute some commands in command prompt and store its output in a text file in same directory where script is run. Now i have converted this vbs file to exe using iexpress wizard by windows. but when i execute the its run in TEMP folder and does not create any text file out . is there any workaround for it to behave same as vbs file when the exe is run.

      On page 21 of IExpress Configuration Wizard[^], it shows a command line switch /t:path that can be used to specify the target folder for extracted files.

          Deserves the up vote just for that. RTFM is an acronym I avoid - they may want me to write the dammed thing first!

              On the CommandLine when you execute the self-extracting package generated by IEXPRESS.
