You cannot make an EXE that cannot be copied. Even if we assume the EXE is for your own use only, why would you prevent yourself from copying your own EXE? What happens when the hard-drive fails and you legitimately NEED to copy the EXE?

If the EXE is intended to be distributed this makes even less sense because how can an end-user install an EXE that cannot be copied? We could tie the EXE to a machine on first use and thus prevent copies running on other machines, but that still leaves the problem of the installer because that contains a "virgin" copy of the EXE.

No, rather than prevent copying by unauthorised users, you should prevent execution by unlicensed users. License the software using a reputable online licensing product.
