Add standalone executable to windows programs menu on installation

2 views (last 30 days)
How do I add my standalone executable to the windows start menu on installation?
I package my standalone executable in deploy tool and can install in on a user's computer. It will run if I click on the standalone .exe file. However, I would like to run the standalone from the windows "all programs" menu that is accessed from the start button. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!

The Standalone Executable created by MATLAB Compiler will not get installed like any other windows program. It is only contained in the folder where the EXE was copied.

You might be able to drag it on to the menu.
