Hello, I would like to install ZoomIt  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/zoomit

Does anybody know how to do it?

  Try this:

  - copy the portable to "C:\Program files\zoomit"

  - create shotcut on your desktop

  - edit the permissions on the shortcut so EVERYONE is able to read the file.

  - move both files to your repository folder

  - create a new package with a file copy step

  - add the path to the portable exe and the target directory "C:\Program files\zoomit"

  - add a new file copy step

  - now add the path to de *.lnk (shorcut file) and specify the "C:\Users\Public\Desktop" as target

  test-deploy, but be sure to have appropriate rights and if everything is ok deploy

  The other option would be to create a batch file which would copy the files to target locations and use it as a installer while adding the exe and the lnk files via "additional files" in the install step.
