System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Part of the path could not be found. What to do?

Question

C++ / C#

for (int z = 2; z <= 15; z++)
            {
                File.Copy(@"C:\Users\ZeNoX\source\repos\sus\sus\Resources\peele.jpg", [email protected]"C:\Users\{Environment.UserName}\Desktop\sus({z}).jpg");
              

            }

On my PC it works, but on the virtual machine I get an error



. I tried to put a photo in the exe itself, or in the project folder, but still the same error. I need it to work on other PCs as well as on mine. Copied the image to the desktop

Answer 1

You put the image in the properties so that it is always copied to the target folder during the build.
And then you do this:

var desktop = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop);
var targetPath = Path.Combine(desktop, "sus(42).jpg");
File.Copy(@"./Resources/peele.jpg", targetPath);
