Before you can run a file like that you need to make a copy of it outside your exe file, you can use a FileStream to copy it out of the resources, then run it using Process.Start("Path to file")

well, what i did: when you press a button, it print a bat file that ends with "del clean.bat" and then executes it, so you can't read it and you nearly can't copy it

Sorry if my guess is wrong. Judging by the name of your bat file. If you are deleting all files in a folder then you can use this.
Code:
For Each foundFolder As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetDirectories("C:\Test")
My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteDirectory(foundFolder, FileIO.DeleteDirectoryOption.DeleteAllContents)
Next
For Each foundFile As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles( "C:\Test", FileIO.SearchOption.SearchAllSubDirectories, "*.*")
My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteFile(foundFile, FileIO.UIOption.OnlyErrorDialogs, FileIO.RecycleOption.DeletePermanently)
Next

If you really want a batch file... and it must be part of the exe.. My work around would be to create a sub routine which actually creates a new batch file and writes the content to it. Then run the file and after the execution has completed, delete it.
