hi i want to execute a file in a CD image (iso, nrg, ...) image format is not matter! i want to convert several file of a software to a single file (image) and write an extra program in C# that run the program in image! so others can not see my software components! plz help me if you can wrap software components(dll,image,audio,...) in anyway that anyone can not see thats component easyly when use the software. Additional expand i am writing a game, i dont want to anyone can grab my game image & audio & ... but my game engine can not support encryption! so i want to wrap my game with all its resource!

Making it a common CD image format seems like a bad way to protect anything. Why are you worried about users seeing the components anyway? If they want to use it, they don't want to break it.. (and even if they do, it's their problem) An easy way to "hide" the components would be to zip them together and give it an other extension (say, .dat), regular users wouldn't mess with it and that sounds precisely like what you want. You could use #ZipLib[^] for this, it's free (and the license is friendly).

See Harolds response. Also google for '.NET obfuscator'. Obfuscators mess with the code, don't worry it still runs, in a way that makes it difficult for others to read. Which is sort of what you want to achieve.
