I would like to create a topic with an .exe file attachment. The site will not let me do it. Any suggestions? W 10 64 , pc Dell XPS 8000 - core i7 2,8 GHz--ram 6 MB--GEFORCE GTX 1050TI 4GB - SSD 256 + 2x630--area Pal

Why would you want to do that? Most people would not download/use an exe file for fear of infecting their computer.

Try uploading that file to a file sharing site (there are several free ones) and then post the information for the download. Even if you upload an exe file, you may still be accused of posting something that would affect someone's computer - justified or not. .

^ Even on those sites, you need to post a zip file containing the exe.
