7zS.sfx does not exist in the 7-Zip folder

Question

I want to use the sfx module to create a .exe file of an installer

On reading up online i found that we need this particular file : 7zS.sfx According to the instructions here

this particular file should be available in 7-Zip folder (program files or where it has been installed). The problem is I cannot find this file. I tried downloading 7-zip again. Still not able to see this file.

Is there any extra plug-in i need to download for this file?

Answer 1

Well after reading up a bit more about the types of sfx modules available... as specified by this SO-Link ...I downloaded the 7z_extra module from here

The installer works fine now :)
