How to embed all files in exe?

Question

C++ / C#

Hello, I made a small game

But the problem! Images disappear when I open an exe on another computer:

What should I do? How to download all the pictures and libraries inside the exe (the weight of the program does not matter)
I work in Visual Studio 2017, the language is c ++ and the sfml library

Answer 1

Have you ever seen games that consist of a single exe file?
Put the resources next to the exe and load in relative paths.

Answer 2

Open the properties of the project, throw it all files into resources.
Then you can use them, but I don't remember the code, then googled Winforms resources
P.s. I'm calling from phone

Answer 3

Resource Files (Visual Studio) ( in Russian ).

Answer 4

As mentioned above, design all files as resources in the project. Further in the code, you need to load them using the WinAPI functions: FindResource() and LoadResource(), get the size of the resource - SizeofResource().

Answer 6

Another option is to drive the necessary resources into base64 and store the resulting string directly in the code.
