I just found out that if you have a project that you have named with a space
such as "My Project", getting embedded resources doesn't work if you are
getting them with GetManifestResourceStream(Name) method. If I change "My
Project" to "MyProject", it works fine.

Hello Dennis,

That happens because Visual Studio uses the project's name as the root namespace. As a namespace name can't contain spaces, Visual Studio replaces them with underscores.

Regards.
