Excrating a file

Im wanting my program to extract a file from the 'Resources' area in the program and put it in the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Folder\Folder\Folder\Folder\Folder', im not sure of the code as im a n00b at coding. If anyone could help me out that would be great!

Just OPEN the resource file, if it's your program... If it isn't, then we probably can't help.

Well first of all the Program Files (x86) folder is not going to exist on some pcs, second those on which it does exist are going to deny write access to it so you are looking at a couple of issues right off the bat.

I'm not sure but if the application is running is the security context of an admin account that shouldn't be an issue. I've never explicitly tested this so I'm not certain.
