- And a final note, you should encrypt the password stored in the exe. The encryption doesn't have to be the strongest, possibly just even an ascii value shift, but atleast[sic] some level of encryption that will keep someone using a hex editor from noticing an unusual string of characters in plain english at the end of your exe.

- I have generated an EXE on the server then a shortcut in local drive C:\ . This shortcut starts in C:\MyDocuments (anyfolder). I'm trying to read a file located at the same place as the EXE so I need to get the full path name of the EXE.
- 2003 September 18, Stephen J Whiteley, “How to change the name of the exe file?”, in microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion[5] (Usenet), retrieved 2022-04-14:
- The exe name is NOT the project name: they are two different things. As soon as you save your project (after building an exe), whatever you built as your exe is the name it will always use for the exe. You can change the project name and it doesn't affect the exe name.
