I try using Costura.Fody to embed DLL files into exe file. First I install Costura.Fody by run this command in package manager console : install-package Costura.Fody, Then Build the project. But building project was unsuccessful and this is the error of building project:

  • Ok... I updated it, and then installed `Virtuosity.Fody`. Then builded again the project, and it was build successfully. But were can I found the output exe file? The executable file In bin/debug folder size is 60KB while I'm using awesomium which is size at least 30MB...! – Saman Salehi Feb 04 '16 at 12:44
  • I read documentation and I couldn't embed Awesomium's dlls. I asked a seperate question for this, but no one answered it... Could you please visit the question and give me some advises?
