But after this I am stuck to access this newly added resource. Was checking the following existing blog /posts with no help.

embed 3rd party EXE on the simple vb.net form
How to insert exe file in VB.NET project and publish app with this file?

Is it even possible what I am trying to achieve? if yes, any thoughts how?
