"single file" deployment

[ArchivedPointOnePa]

Is it possible to use Labview's Installer to generate a single file installer, like InstallShield?

 I  can zip the install Volume, but I'd prefer to have an single EXE for the installation.

Not as far as I know. There's support files included that are required for the installer to work. One of these, for example, is the inclusion of Windows Installer. If you have WinZip then you can make a self-extracting installer that will automatically run the installer program. Many programs are distributed this way (including Microsoft updates). Another thing you may want to consider is a third-party installer like nsis. I've heard that mentioned on this forum a few times. I've never used it myself, so I can neither recommend it nor disparage it.

Just pack the install volume into a single zip archive. Then make the zip archive a selfextracting  exe which will automatically start the setup.exe created by LabVIEW.

It is the same thing which Installshield does under the hood too.
