Last sunday when i am sending a executable file to my friend by gmail. But when i want to send it, a gmail warning display that you do not allow any executable file send from Gmail. Due to some security measure it was not allowed.
But here is the tutorial How to send the executable File via Gmail:-
-
Go to Folder Options (My Computer > Tools > Folder Options)
-
Then rename the extension .exe with other extension like .jpg. Windows will prompt a warning message, just click “Okâ€. The file icon will be changed to .jpg icon and now your executable file is in .jpg format.
-
Send the file to the receipent.
-
After the receipent recieve the file, ask them to rename the extension file with .exe or it will not work.
