I think it's

Code: Select all

Process.Start(My.Resources.Resource1{or whatever you named your resource file}.{name of file in the resource file})

The stuff I wrote in {}'s doesn't go into the code.

I tried it too for hours to start an exe file from my recourses.Some people say it's impossible.

Yea, that's why aio's are installers, so they just start up the app from the given directory...
