Mostly gmail blocks zip or exe files because gmail thinks it virus file so thats why it blocks.There are

two methods to send zip or exe files in gmail.

Method 1:

 just upload your zip or exe files on google drive then share and send to your friend

it is very easy way.

Method 2:

If you dont want to send using google drive just zip your exe file in archive.after that change the extension of zip file to make google fool.

Follow these steps.

• First go to control panel then folder options then view tab and then uncheck the option "hidden extension for known file types".
• Second go to your zip files properties by right click on it and add one any letter with your extension for example if the extension of zip file is ".zip" the make it like this ".zips" it will show you message that if you will do this your file will not work you just Click Ok.
• Third send your file using gmail it will send without any issue.

Note:Then you must tell the receiver to change the file extension again from zips to .zip only then he/she can easily use the file.
