Hi DaniWeb,

So when you right click an .exe file (one you compile with C) you get the option to view the details such as File Description, File Version, Product Name, etc. I was wondering how to change these? I assume it'll be a C command, but I'm not entirely sure what.

Regards, Michael Sammels

You will have to add a resource file to the project. Here are some free resourc file compilers.

Hi Ancient,

I am currently using "windres.exe" - is this any good?

Remember if you want to Change any .exe File Information, then You have to know the File Format of .exe File. Then Hold that .exe file in a pointer in a C-program. then u can change.
