How to start an exe from embedded Resources C#

My Exe File is stored in Resources. Now how do i get like the path of the file to start it?

I tried something but it always didn't worked!

Answer 1

Possibly you have to read its bytes/in binary form from the resource, then save it to the disk - you have to specifiy the path - and call with the Process library.

byte[] exeBytes = Properties.Resources.OPKMR;
string exeToRun = @"C:\TEST\MyTestExe.exe";

Etc.
