    Description

      jpackager currently does not support 'exe' installers on Windows platform,only 'msi' installers are supported..
      The requirement to support 'exe' installers is included in the JEP (JDK-8200758).
      javapackager in JDK10 does support crfeation of 'exe' installers. We need to port that support to the new jpackager.

      This enhancement is for jpackager mode create-installer.
      a follow-on enhancement, JDK-8200758 is filed for create-jdk-installer mode.
