Package Your Entire App Into a Single Native EXE for Windows
ExeOutput for PHP bundles the PHP runtime and all your source files—including PHP, HTML, assets, JS, JSON, XML, and PDFs—into a single, native Windows application (.EXE). Effortlessly manage which files to include in your build with our integrated File Manager.
Effortless Distribution
Deploy the EXE file on your website, a file hosting service, or any cloud provider like Dropbox or OneDrive. Users just download and run it—no installation required.
No Server Required
No need for Apache or other web servers, which means no port or firewall conflicts.
Robust Process Management
PHP runs as a separate CGI process, isolating it from the UI for enhanced stability and responsiveness. If the PHP process fails, it automatically restarts on page refresh without crashing your application.
Customize Everything, from PHP Version to EXE Icon
Applications built with ExeOutput for PHP are stand-alone and native. The PHP runtime is embedded directly into the EXE and is never extracted to the hard drive. You have the flexibility to choose your desired PHP version, from PHP 5.6 to the latest PHP 8.5.
Complete EXE Branding
Customize your application with a unique icon and version information. You can even add a semi-transparent splash screen at startup.
Full Localization Support
Easily translate your PHP applications into multiple languages. Your apps are fully Unicode-enabled, ensuring global compatibility (though the PHP engine itself is not).
Portable Apps: Run from a USB Drive
Create portable applications that run directly from a USB stick without writing any data to the local computer—perfect for restricted environments or use on the go.
Secure Your Application with ExeOutput for PHP
ExeOutput for PHP provides robust copy protection by compiling your application into a secure EXE file, preventing end-users from accessing your source code and assets. Additional security features include password protection, expiration dates, and more.
No File Extraction
Compiled files are compressed and protected, making them impossible to extract with decompilers or archiving tools like 7-Zip.
Never on Disk
PHP scripts are never extracted to the hard disk. For improved security, critical PHP scripts can be automatically encrypted, preventing end-users from modifying them after compilation.
Code Signing Support
Applications can be digitally signed with a code signing certificate (Authenticode) to prevent security warnings on Windows 11 and older versions.
