I made a huge archive which took ages to compress... Unfortunately, I forgot to check the SFX option... Now, I have .7z file.. is there any way to convert it into a .exe?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
If it's huge, 7-zip might have included an SFX module larger than the 7-zip installer, so I'd suggest releasing the 7-zip intaller together with your package, or just the commandline version with a .bat file.

copy /b "<pathto>\7zS.sfx" + "utf-8script.txt" + 7zipfile.7z newsfx.exe
utf-8script.txt is optional, native w2k notepad and scite can edit utf-8 files.
example:
;!@Install@!UTF-8!
Title="Setup"
RunProgram="setup.exe"
;!@InstallEnd@!
