The Primer Files tab is where you can edit the list of primer files that will be included in the patch executable. The files in this list will be extracted from the patch executable before the patching process begins so they can be used at the very start of the patching process, right after the user runs the patch executable.
Any files listed in the Primer files list will be extracted immediately to the patch executable's temporary directory when the patch begins. You can access these files by using the %TempLaunchFolder% session variable.
For example, if you added "C:\My Program\Checker.exe" to the Primer files list, you could access the Checker.exe program at the beginning of the patch by using the following path: %TempLaunchFolder%\Checker.exe
