Copy a File From Resources to Temp Folder

I'm making a VB application and I want to copy a file called "L3nEncrypt.jar" which is in resources of the application to the temp folder.

Right now I have this:

My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Temp

which returns the temp folder.

I found the solution

Imports System.IO
File.WriteAllBytes(My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Temp & "/L3nEncrypt.jar", My.Resources.L3nEncrypt)

Use System.IO.File.Copy(SourceFileName,DestinationFileName)

The parameters are full file names of type string. Make sure that you're running the application with admin privileges so that the copying can be successful.
