Convert HTA to EXE

QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert HTA to EXE?
Yes - HTA converts to EXE.

You can WRAP an .hta into a standalone .exe with a script/HTA-to-EXE packager so it runs without exposing source. This bundles the HTA with a stub; it does not compile to native code, and such wrappers are commonly abused by malware, so antivirus may flag them.
