You can use Post-build Event in project properties. Using this event you can copy dll file any other place or directory after build but dll project must be added in this project.

    He want to place executable in different folder and DLLs into different, so it is not answer to the question. – NASSER Aug 27 '15 at 11:19

If I am not wrong I believe you can using Element . You can do this in app.config file The following example shows how to specify application base subdirectories the runtime should search for assemblies.

Personally I have not tested this. I found this in here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/823z9h8w.aspx

Add the following line before the main Form is initialized

  • Ok, but when i build how the dlls go to that folder? I can create a post build action, but i want to publish my application and the dlls are not in the /bin/Data folder. – user3452550 Aug 27 '15 at 11:56
  • Have you copied your required Dlls into data? – NASSER Aug 27 '15 at 11:58
  • Well let me explain better. 1. I add references by nuget package manager. 2. I use that things to do stuff in my project. 3. Build the project then the dlls are built in the /bin/debug folder. I want them to go to /bin/debug/Data folder. – user3452550 Aug 27 '15 at 13:25
