Hi,
I have written a small application which plays video files which are saved into a directory C:\Video. Once loaded these files never change.
The problem is simple, I cannot find a way to add the folder (Video) containing the files to the installer package. I would like the program to install on other peoples computers with the program automatically adding the directory containing the videos to their c:
I can obviously already manually copy and paste this to the c: directory and perhaps do this with Winrar or something but it would be neater to find a way for the vs installer to do this, so any ideas of how to make this happen please? The program plays videos of martial arts patterns to help the students in our academy learn. Thank you.

Jump to PostYou can add the videos to your project as a resource.
My Project > Resources > Add Existing File
This will embed the videos in the project.
Then to reference them, you can do something like My.Resources.ResourceName
