I followed this guide (in doc): build-windows-msvc.md, but don't see parameters for deploy.

Yes, I think for the installer, I will have to follow: build-windows.md, that need WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux).

Are you talking about building Bitcoin Core Windows installer? If so, it seems their documentation only mention how to do it on Linux.

You can also create an installer using:
Code:
make deploy

But if you have extra storage space and some free RAM, you can do that using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux).

Hi all,

I am a beginner in compiling c++.
I need help to create the windows installer of the bitcoin sources.

I am compiling in Windows environment in Visual Studio 2022.

I ran:
cmake -B build --preset vs2022-static

then:
cmake --build build --config Release

it's all ok!

But what is the command to generate the executable for the installation in windows?

Thanks
