Hello,

I like to generate "exe"-files from perl scripts with "pp".

For Example:

pp -o hello.exe hello.pl

The first time I execute "hello.exe" it takes some seconds before it is really started. I know the reason. The first time the exe-file is unpacked to a temporary directory.

The second time I start "hello.exe" is quick because just the stuff in the temporary directory is executed.

Even when I logoff and then logon again and then I start the "hello.exe" it is started fast.

But when I do a restart of the computer and then execute "hello.exe" then it takes again some seconds. It seems that it is unpacked again to a temporary directory.

This is my problem. I want that after a restart the "exe" is started fast. There shall not be an unpacking. The goal is that only the first time the exe-file is unpacked to a temporary directory. If the computer is restarted it shall take the stuff from the temporary directory and not unpacking it again.

Thank you for your help.

Greetings,

Dirk
