Что такое файл .exe?
EXE (Executable) is the standard file format for programs and applications on Microsoft Windows. When you double-click an EXE file, Windows loads and runs the compiled code contained within it. EXE files can be standalone applications, installers, or self-extracting archives. Due to their ability to execute code directly on your system, EXE files are the most common vector for malware, making it crucial to only run EXE files from trusted sources.
