I have found this https://github.com/HugoPlatzer/tiny-rust-binaries.

Can you test it and see how it behaves with msvc toolchain?

That contains a lot of platform-specific build instructions for Linux (and for the ELF file format used on Linux but not Windows), so it's never going to work with the msvc toolchain.

For some reason, I saw ELF as EXE! hahaha ^_^

My bad everyone, my bad!

I linked these guys here https://github.com/pts/pts-tinype. They managed to do something similar with the PE headers, and I might have to try that next although I'm doubtful win64 exes are permitted to run if they are >1Kb
