Hi,

I loaded AppGameKit 2 into my Windows 10 virtual machine and loaded my project.
I don't see "Windows" as an export option?
How do I export to Windows platform?
Thanks!

On the icon bar at the top is a gear that says "compile". Click on that and your project will be compiled to the same folder the main.agc is located. When you click the "Run" icon, it will be compiled before running, so no need to click the "Compile" icon. When distributing, you only need the .exe and the media folder.

Tier 1:
Anytime you compile, an EXE is built in the project folder.

All you need is that and the media folder and you have a Windows App

Coding things my way since 1981 -- Currently using AppGameKit V2 Tier 1

password protect zip all your media apps and contents and then send to a DVD or an external USB device

Sorry, I can't tell if that is a joke or you are serious...

Also, AppGameKit 2 Windows built EXE does not require any *.DLL's?

Thanks!

Lost track of what you trying to acheive

Does your VMware / Virtual Manager allow you to connect to your local C:\ to grab all your projects

What system are you using for your virtual manager- hyperV/vmware/Oracle

Normally you can activate a USB - so stick all your projects on a usb/dvd for you VM to see to bring them into it

If this is still not right - then what exactly are you wanting to achieve

The exe requires no DLL's but it does require the direct X runtime library to be installed on the target machine.

For media obfuscation/file hiding/media protection ...see this thread:
