Uneditably folders

[MechatheSlag]

I have a few folders beside my exe that I want to be hidden from users so they can't edit them.

Any ideas?

Do you mean you would like to hide external files? If so, add them to the Binary Files list in the Data Elements editor. They will be read from the EXE file, or extracted to a temporary file if the object (like all the Video objects) can't read them directly from the EXE file.

Only problem: the objects and/or actions that use them must support embeded binary files (in the build 247 there will be actions to extract binary files from the EXE so that you can use them even with objects that don't support them).

(in the build 247 there will be actions to extract binary files from the EXE so that you can use them even with objects that don't support them).

so will this solve the current problem of accessing embedded files via expressions?

nice

Yeah, that's my problem. I use expressions to point out the external files. But like xyzzy pointed out, this will be solved in build 247?
