[Solved - User Error] IncludeBinary EXE Issue

Post by J. Baker »

When you include an exe within your app and later write it back to disk as an exe, it's missing modern theme support and DPI awareness. How to keep it all intact?

Both are configured in the manifest of your exe. Is the manifest still intact after writing to disk? (Use ResEdit or CFF Explorer to check, or HxD at the EOF)
You could also zip the exe and uncompress to the destination folder...
Et cetera is my worst enemy

Turns out to be my own error. While adding the packer code I noticed the error and now all is fine. Thanks chi! ;)
