Question

The way I’ve previously accessed content files is by setting them to “Copy always/if newer”, then loading the file directly.

However, browsing the web, it seems there’s another way to load it – That it’s automatically included in the .exe/.dll. However, I’ve been unable to find out what the method is, to access said included content.

It is Embedded Resource. This will cause it to be streamed into your assembly.
