9. Copy all FreeCAD files to the folder "~\FreeCAD"
e.g. "C:\FreeCAD\Installer\FreeCAD"
Now you have 2 options:
* Either you got an already compiled FreeCAD, then copy all FreeCAD files to the folder</br>

* Open the file *Settings.nsh* as described in step 3. above and set there</br>
`!define FILES_FREECAD` to the folder you specified as `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`
* Copy into that folder the file *Delete.bat* that is part of the installer
* change to that folder and search it for **\*_debug.\***
* delete all found files
* repeat this for the searches with **\*_d.\***, **\*.pyc** and **\*.pdb**
* open a command line in Windows and change in this to the folder
* run the comamand</br>
`Delete.bat`
* (These steps assure that the installer only contains files users need. Moreover it assures that the
overall files size is below 2 GB and we can use the most compact compression for the installer.)

copy its distributable DLLs to the folder FILES_DEPS (see step 3).

the build time for the installer a lot but increases its file size. The compression
is turned off by uncommenting the line
