It compresses [[MS-DOS EXE|EXE]] files (to EXE), and [[DOS executable (.com)|COM]] files (to COM).<br /> <br /> It was distributed with v3.10+ of ''ProtEXE'', another executable tool.<br /> <br /> == Identification ==<br /> For compressed COM, the first 16 bytes of the file have the pattern {{magic|fc 1e 06 8c dd 83 c5 10 89 e8 ba ?? ?? 8b 1e 02}}. For compressed EXE, that same pattern appears at offset 32.<br /> <br /> == Software ==<br /> * {{CdTextfiles|simtel/simtel0101/simtel/pgmutl/protx310.zip|protx310.zip (ProtEXE 3.10)}} → COMPREXE.* - ComprEXE v1.0 [1997-08-13]<br /> * [{{SACFTPURL|security|protx311.zip}} protx311.zip (ProtEXE 3.11)] → COMPREXE.* - ComprEXE v1.0 [1997-09-01]</div>
