How to add and then extract Dll from C# just before the program starts?

Question

So I have a simple written program in C# (.exe) but it requires one of Dll's to be loaded and extracted into specific or temp folder so the program will load correctly.

What's the easiest way to achieve it ?

Is this unmanaged DLL? – Mark Shevchenko Sep 11 '15 at 12:23 — Mark Shevchenko, Sep 11 '15 at 12:23

Ship the DLL in the same folder as the EXE.

I want to embed it into exe file rather than having it in the same folder, is there any way I can do that ? – Bolmex Sep 11 '15 at 12:20
