7-zip can be used to produce a small and unobtrusive single file executable for Windows users. The self-extracting archive will be unzipped into the user's temp directory (%temp%) and a simple configuration file can be used to specify the executable to be run. After the application is closed, all files and folders created in the temp directory are deleted.
