## Embedded Files

This section allows you to embed files into the host application. You can call embedded files from your host application normally as if it was in the same directory. Be aware that only your host application is allowed to access the embedded files and you can not extract the embedded files later on. Files that are embedded are read-only and can not be modified or deleted.

You must declare your Host Root Directory before embedding a file because all embedded files must be virtualized relative to that directory (and must be contained somewhere within it).
