How do we package an extension for publishing that contains a native app?

In order to use a native app in Windows, we have to create Windows registry keys that tell Mozilla/Firefox where the native app is located, the name of the native app, etc. We also have to copy files on the user's system to that location. Is there a standard installer for native apps that we should use? I currently have a batch file that creates a folder, copies files, and registers the Windows registry keys.

Instructions for submitting the add-on indicate that we should zip certain standard files, but there does not appear to be dedicated discussion about packaging the native app components.

You should contact Microsoft since Windows product is their domain. FF is a Browser not something like a O/S like Windows.
