1.- You need to install the following in order to build wfuzz in windows:

python 2.7 for x86

2.- Run c:\Python27\python.exe setup.py py2exe

3.- wfuzz_windows directory is the one to be distributed.

Compiling the python script can be used but the developer needs to look at this in a way that it would not have any problem further on the module. Using the wfuzz can be accessible by the user and it might get affected through Microsoft compatibility telemetry as it is being done for the windows.

Hi,

The Python import mechanism works relative to the __name__ of the current file. When you execute a file directly, it doesn’t have its usual name, but has "__main__" as its name instead. So relative imports don’t work.

You can, as Igancio suggested, execute it using the -m option. If you have a part of your package that is meant to be run as a script, you can also use the __package__ attribute to tell that file what name it’s supposed to have in the package hierarchy.

To use Wfuzz on Windows, you don’t need to compile a Python script into an .exe file. Here are the steps to use Wfuzz on Windows:

  1. Install Python:

Before you can use Wfuzz, you need to have Python installed on your computer. You can download and install Python from the official website (Download Python | Python.org). Make sure to select the option to add Python to your system path during the installation process.

  1. Install Wfuzz:

After installing Python, you can install Wfuzz using pip, which is a package manager for Python. Open a command prompt and enter the following command:

pip install wfuzz

This will install Wfuzz and its dependencies on your computer.

  1. Start Using Wfuzz:

Once Wfuzz is installed, you can start using it in the command prompt. To see the available options and usage examples, you can enter the following command:

bash

wfuzz --help

This will display a list of available options and syntax for using Wfuzz.

  1. Example Usage:

As an example, you can use Wfuzz to test a web application’s login page for common username and password combinations. To do this, you would enter a command similar to the following:

arduino

wfuzz -w common_usernames.txt -w common_passwords.txt https://example.com/login.php?username=FUZZ&password=FUZZ

In this example, Wfuzz will use the wordlists common_usernames.txt and common_passwords.txt to test combinations of usernames and passwords on the login page of the website example.com.

In summary, you can use Wfuzz on Windows by installing Python and Wfuzz using pip, and then using Wfuzz in the command prompt. You do not need to compile a Python script into an .exe file to use Wfuzz on Windows.
