How do I create a .exe file from a Windows Forms application?
And I want to use it on other computers without installing Visual studio, just run it as an application.
After building the application, just go to the bin folder and you will find your .exe file.

Can we install .exe release file generated by a C# console app? if yes, how?
The answer is no. The generated exe file just runs the console application. If you want to create an installer, I suggest researching Wix.

Embedding an external executable inside a C# program

Closed 7 years ago.
I have an executable with dll dependencies that I am using in my program and I want to be able package the other exe and dlls together with my application. This is a c# application and I am not sure what the other exe is (c# or c++).
As of now, I am just referencing an external file (C:\blah\bin\blah.exe) with the exe and dlls, but this won't work once other people start using the application and will need the exact exe file location.
Is there a good way for me to embed this exe into my application?

Is there any way to run both windows and console application while debugging C# project in Visual Studio 2013? I'm trying to run an XNA project if that helps in any way.
Thank you
If they are in the same solution you can set multiple projects on startup in the solution properties.
You could build one of them and run the executable directly from the debug folder while debugging the other project. Alternatively there's some information here on switching between processes while debugging: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj919165.aspx

.NET windows application, can it be compressed into a single .exe?
I have a project that relies on several dlls and once I compile it, it requires that I run the .exe in the same folder with the dlls. Can I package them together so I don't have to do that?
For reference, I'm using C#
You can use ILMerge to combine them into one.
