I need a tool to convert .cmd to .exe. Have been using free tools before, but now we have upgraded to SEP 14 and my file is flagged as virus.
Before we purchase a licence for PrimalScript, i would like to make sure i can convert cmd to exe "i think i can look @ forums" and make sure it wont be flagged as virus ".cmd is not"
Thank you.

Throw it at your virus scanner. Also, the trial version has the ability to package your cmd files as exe's so go ahead and try it.

You only need that if you have a virtual machine, or at least if it thinks you do.
Without knowing what you see....

Well, yeah, it doesn't know yet what you want to do. Click on Packager -> Settings.

Well, you are packaging, so you wouldn't look at any of the installer settings. So focus on the pages under packager.
You need to decide if you want 32 or 64 bit or both, that would be that combo box where it says Target.
The CMD engine is under 'Other'. Click around, its not complicated.
Under output settings, you tell it WHERE to put the exe, icons, elevation, manifest, signatures, pretty straight forward.
Restrictions, look at them, but for testing you won't need that.
Version information, that is where you provide information for the version resource. The fields are basically what you see when you right click on an exe file in Windows Explorer and select Properties -> Details.
Build command is for any post processing
